There Will Be Cupcakes

This Friday, August 27, we kick off the Poly-Performance Series at The Easy Chair Coffee Shop for Fall, 2010.  Megan Moriarty and Katherine Sullivan wasted no time relaunching this popular event which drew the largest audiences and most diverse performers of any open-mic type event ever held at The Easy Chair Coffee Shop.

You’re invited to bring your “stuff.”  We’re looking for people who would like to read/perform:

1 to 5 poems
up to 5 pages of a short story
1 to 3 songs (original or cover)
up to 5 minutes of some other type of creative endeavor

We cannot promise we won’t be attacked by zombies before it is over, but we promise there will be cupcakes.

Friday December 11, 7:00 PM we will gather at The Easy Chair Coffee Shop for another installment of the hugely successful Poly-Performance Series.  Last month’s event was standing room only, so please come early to get a seat and sign up.

Go to the Group Facebook Page to RSVP!

Friday, April 10th at the Easy Chair, we will be having an open mike to celebrate National Poetry Month. You can read your favorite author’s work, or present something of your own. Feel free to bring an instrument and perform a song. This will be a kid friendly event, so choose your words carefully!

The event will take place from 6:00-8:00. Be sure to bring people with you!
