Audiences are invited to participate actively in these open-mic events,
where up-and-coming performers can do their thing and make a name for
themselves in a friendly, informal setting. All performers — known,
unknown, soon-to-be-known, published or not, first time before an audience or
not — are invited to come and perform their writings, poems, songs or
stories. Sign up with the host at the venue starting at 4:30 pm. Each
participant has a maximum of five minutes for his or her performance.

Don’t bother me with your chocolates, honey!

An English-language show featuring an explosive mix of amusements,
absurdities, activism, slung truths, rhythm and rap, kitschiness, craziness and
other subtleties. Add “impure” poetry and shake it all up. Sense of
humour recommended. Welcome one and all… and who knows, maybe Cupid will
be among the guests!
Once again our talented enchantress Alexis O’Hara will be running the
show. To add a little Valentine’s flair, pass on your special requests to
her and perhaps she’ll work a little magic…
The evening will be co-produced by Wired on Words and Music, a Canadian
spoken-word CD-production company.
Show recorded by CBC Radio One.
