| Other Info | It's Chill Pill East time! We never have enough time at our theatre events to get everyone on the open mic, and we want to try new stuff as well! So Chill Pill East was born. An entirely open mic event within spitting distance of Hackney Downs. http://www.starbyhackneydowns.co.uk/ Chill Pill started out in 2010 as an open mic night in a basement in Bethnal Green which grew in popularity by the week. It was a safe and vibrant environment for poets and musicians to perform their work in progress. We miss it, so we're bringing that back. We'll be trying new works, having some jokes, playing some tunes and eating some pizza. Come do that as well! It's back to roots for us. Wednesday December 11th £3 on the door. Open mic-ers sign up at the venue. Bring a poem and a nice hat. |
