The country's only recurring open mic dedicated to sci-fi, fantasy, and supernatural horror returns to The Red Stag Supper Club Dec 17! The evening's theme is "Celebration!" Open-mic sign-up starts at 7:20 pm. If selected, performers have up to 7 minutes of stage time. Anything goes as long as it's speculative fiction. First-time performers are guaranteed stage time.
Performers can interpret the theme any way they like, or not at all, since writing to theme is optional.
For December's Sentence Challenge, the performer who can most seamlessly or creatively fit the following line into their performance, as determined by the audience, will win a prize: "We couldn't remember anything." Or, alternatively: "They couldn't remember anything." Like the theme, this challenge is also optional.
The show space is at the back of the Red Stag in the designated performance area. Booze and food are available for purchase at the bar. There is free parking in the adjacent parking lot after 6 pm.
This is not just a storytelling open mic. You can bring songs, dance routines, comedy sets, etc. As long as it falls within the "speculative fiction" genres and sticks to the time limit, it's game. If you're not a performer, but know someone who might be interested in signing up, or someone who just enjoys speculative fiction, please spread the word!
Special guest performers will be announced soon.
