I created Penny's Open Mic to give a space for any artist/performer to share their work on stage with the environment of support and an openness to experimentation, pushing boundaries and delving deeper. With the help from the many talented artists who grace the stage and for the better part, respectfully listen, this mic has become an inspiring atmosphere where people feel free and safe to grow as artists and as people.
Every week we have a different Theme to inspire artistic flow, a Featured Special Guest and raffle prizes!
During the break is the Hootenanny Spectacular! An open Jam session like none other led by the great Mike Milazzo and Joe Yoga!!
Under St. Marks Theater, Right in the heart of the east village's last stand. With a brand new sound system, a large stage for dancers, a screen for film-makers and managers dedicated to art over profit, Horsetrade theater co has gained the hearts and attention from a new generation of artists/performers by rewarding risk-taking and experimentation. The under St. marks scene inspires innovation while remaining abashed in the true east village spirit.
"Spoken-word artists, musicians and other creative folks are invited to share their talents at this weekly gathering hosted by Penny Pollak."
