Bluecorn Cafe is excited to partner with the Telluwriters & The Passing Of The Gourd! If you love words, imagination, play and community, this is a great event for you. No Cost.
The Telluwriters will share customized poetry readings, and then give attendees opportunity to share &/or reflect. This is not an open mic, but a sharing circle! Bring a poem to share.
The Passing of the Gourd is "central to our performances, where we ...[share] readings by the troupe."
"Afterwards we form a circle (if we can) and pass the gourd around the gathering -- encouraging folks to read a poem of their own (or someone they like), tell a story, sing a song, or just make a quick comment/nod and pass the gourd on to the next person."
"This is a different way of sharing poetry than the standard walk up to the stage “open mic” kind of thing. It involves listening as well as performing, as there’s no cross talk (although twinkling or jazz hands are encouraged). The person with the gourd has the floor."
