The Prototype Poetry Show & Open Mic at The Broadwater Studio – Los Angeles, CA

Who are we?

The Poesers

What are we doing?

Hosting and producing an experimental poetry show & open mic called, THE PROTOTYPE.

Why is this happening? Well…. *takes a seat and gets comfy with a glass of whiskey in hand*

We are a collective of “Poesers” (poetry + posers = ironically combined into a new “poetic” word) merging communities through interdisciplinary art-making, performance and other creative mediums through artistic fusion with poetry. With our stage, we offer more opportunity for humans of Los Angeles to be seen, heard, and understood with every finger snap. We hypothesize that the microphone is for everyone and anyone regardless of level and skill. Through our shows, we test out that theory.

Want to sing your poetry? Go for it.

Want to play an instrument while reciting your poetry? Go ahead!

Want to dance and spit a poem in your act? DO IT!

This is why we are called, THE PROTOTYPE.

For our open mic; works in progress, music pieces, and storytelling welcomed, don’t worry about *effing* up, just chalk it up to #THEPROTOTYPE!

Featuring FIVE special features each show, announcements of our lineup are made on our Instagram @theprototypepoetry *cough-GO FOLLOW US-cough*
