The Hip Crowd: one last hurrah!

Hey! The rumours are true. For the very last time it’s…

The Hip Crowd Open Mic!

Oxford Poetry Library and Makespace Oxford bring you an open mic event especially for folks with babes-in-arms, but also open to all and everyone. For the past 3 years, we’ve brought you daytime creativity on the last Friday of every month, but our baby is now all grown up and now it’s time to say goodbye. Join us on 25 September for this very last celebration of our Hip Crowd and give it the send-off it deserves.

If you’re feeling like daytime is the right time for you to entertain or be entertained, join us at The Community Works. The action begins at 11.30am, but performers please do arrive from 11am to sign up for your turn on the stage.

We welcome poetry, music, storytelling, comedy and whatever else you think might dazzle in a 5-minute slot

The entire event will be baby friendly and baby welcoming, with lots of floor space at the front, changing facilities, buggy parking area outside, and clear walkways to exit the performance area easily if needed.  There will also be that most beautiful and warmly appreciated of gifts: free tea and coffee provided.

The event is non-ticketed, but costs £5 to spectate (£2 for concessions) and is totally free to performers.

Be there or be square.
