Saturn Series Poetry is a writers' open mic every Monday night in the lovely Nightingale Lounge. October will see the start of our 14th year of bringing poetry & prose to the neighborhood in NYC. Our two cohosts announce each open mic reader for their 3 to 5 minutes on stage with the mic. There is one feature who has about 20 minutes to perform. This is not a slam, it is simply great poetry, prose and sometimes a song or two in a great listening room. The styles are varied with poets, playwrights, screenwriters and novelists. We look forward to hearing your work. Features are generally booked from those who participate in the reading. Please be welcome.Upcoming Features: Dec. 1 - Zev Torres Jan. 5 - Bill Duke JAN. 31 - Theda Detlor Memorial at the Dalton School ....and more every Monday night! |
