Get your virtual ticket now
We know. We're tired of the screen life, too. But this is no ordinary Zoom room.
Hang with us tonight at our Open Mic N'at and share your creative work with a supportive, diverse assortment of writers, musicians, artists, and makers of all kinds.
Sing us a song. Read us a poem. Share your video or visual art. Every performer is eligible to receive a $20 Primanti Brothers gift card. We'll award one gift card by raffle after the event.
See you onstage!

Workshop: One Minute Monologues
Thursday, Feb. 10, from 3:30-5:30 p.m.
Register here
Monologues are a way to build a performance, give it a perspective, add definition, and understand it in relationship to other characters, settings, and events. In this in-person workshop, we’ll create quick 60 second monologues, share them with each other, and do a rapid performance. All you need is a story, idea, or experience you’re interested in sharing. No previous acting experience needed. Facilitated by Dani Stuchel, Center for Creativity
