Audiences are invited to participate actively in these open-mic events, where up-and-coming performers can do their thing and make a name for themselves in a friendly, informal setting. All performers — known, unknown, soon-to-be-known, published or not, first time before an audience or not — are invited to come and perform their writings, poems, songs or stories. Sign up with the host at the venue starting at 4:30 pm. Each participant has a maximum of five minutes for his or her performance.

La Sala Rossa, Montréal, Québec

$6.00

A multilingual show taking spectators deep into lands of diversity. We will explore new ideas, strange sonorities, accents of the other and music from afar. We will let ourselves be stirred by the unknown and surprised by those we thought we knew well.

Follow your visionary captain Alexis O’HARA who, armed with maps, binocs, guidebooks and dictionaries, will guide you through the unpredictable waters.
