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."

hey Guys!

I just wanted to thank everyone who came to Penny's Open Mic yesterday for a such a great time. We loved playing for you guys and we loved all the other artists!

It was great to be in the position where we were ready to play a quiet acoustic set and then at the last minute do a little HipHop inspired song called Freaky for you, to keep in the great spirit of the evening :)

If you liked that song, you can actually see the music video for Freaky which was filmed in India last year on YouTube. com

If you're free on Thursday night (2/5) you can catch our gig at Uncle Mike's at 57 Murray St, start time is 10 pm. We'd love to see you there!

Andrew and I both had a great time and loved playing for you guys and we can't wait for the next opportunity to come out and see you guys!

Keep in touch,
Chris

HEY! WHA' HAPN' TO OPEN MIKE ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3RD? ARE YOU DOING ELECTION WORK?
I WISH I BELIEVED MORE IN THE PROCESS. I HOPE MY FEARS ARE WRONG THAT BUSH'S SON-IN-LAW OWNED DIEBOLD VOTING MACHINE WILL STEAL THE ELECTION FOR THE FRICKIN' NEO-CONS. I'M GONNA VOTE, BUT IF OBAMA'S VICTORY IS STOLEN AWAY, I THINK IT'S TIME TO TAKE PENNY'S OPEN MIKE TO THE STREETS.
