The Quirk Thing: A Stage for the Unconventional

A twist on a talent show.
You don't need to put on a show for us.
YOU are talent.
And, we want to experience you.

Come and share yourself, your expression, your creativity, your passions, your ideas, your stories, what makes you... you.

You are free to be...
raw
bold
colorful
vulnerable.

It doesn't have to be over the top. It definitely isn't meant to be perfect. We are gathering to be curious, open-minded, to connect, and to delight in the multi-faceted spectrum of who we are.

You can soak in the atmosphere from the audience or share who you are with us on stage.

The sign-up is open mic style. When you arrive, just put your name down and you'll have up to 4 minutes to share.

We will start at 6:30 pm and the show will end 7:45 pm, but afterwards we will be hanging out inside or in the back garden area depending on the weather.

The show is free with an optional $5 suggested donation from the venue who is so generously hosting us. Also, the bar (http://www.petescandystore.com/menu/)will be open with drinks and some yummy edibles too, so please plan to support the venue when joining us.

p.s. If you're on the fence about sharing something, please feel free to reach out via message for feedback / encouragement. We'd love to hear from you!

As examples: there have been stories, readings from a journal, free-style rap in Chinese, original songs with a Ukulele, and spontaneous expressions. There is no right or wrong. We want your truth in whichever form it wants to be shared!
