Queer Open Mic with Out + Loud
Out + Loud are back at the Bookish Type for another queer open mic!
As the winter evenings draw in, we’re thinking about what keeps us hopeful and connected. Come along and share something; personal, political, rage or joy, new words or old favourites to chase away wintery disillusionment.
To sign up to perform simply send us a message or email*, there will also be a few spaces to sign up on the night if inspiration strikes. So whether you’re a poet, comedian, musician, or something else entirely, we’d love to have you perform with us!
The set-up will be mic free so everything will be acoustic.
Out + Loud is a queer arts collective run by drag king singer-songwriter Ding Frisby and poetic comedian Zee Y.
Date: Wednesday 13th November 2024
Time: 7-9pm
Venue: The Bookish Type, 77a Great George Street, LS1 3BR
Tickets are on a sliding scale (£5 / £3)
Please be honest about your financial situation when selecting what to pay for your ticket. If you purchase a ticket at the lowest end of the scale when you could afford the higher ticket prices, it makes it harder for us to provide financial flexibility to those who most need it.
£5 "I am comfortably able to meet all of my basic financial needs."
£3 "I may stress about meeting my basic financial needs but still regularly achieve them."
A few free tickets available if cost would be a barrier, please contact The Bookish Type to request. Tickets are only refundable up to 7 days before the event starts. Please email to cancel.
