Suzanne Denneen
Bring your brown bag lunch to the ’Sco on Wednesday, August 14 to see your coworkers show off their talents and interests – and perhaps unleash some of your own.
Wednesday, August 14
Noon to 1:30 p.m. at the ’Sco
Spectators
If you just want to enjoy the show without taking the mic, all you need to do is
- set a reminder on your calendar to bring your lunch that day,
- invite your coworkers, and
- enjoy your lunch at the ’Sco.
Performers
Are you considering taking the mic? We all have talents and creative impulses, but we don’t often have an opportunity to show them off for our work friends. You know what I’m talking about…that thing you’re really good at, or at least you really love to do? Yes, that! There is an opportunity to share it with your A&PS friends and colleagues. Sing a song, play an instrument, read one of your poems or short stories, tell some jokes, show off your best mime moves (no mic needed)…whatever you can think of. It’s the first time we’re trying an event like this so we’re not sure what will happen – but we promise a supportive and forgiving audience!
- You’ll have 5–7 minutes in front of the mic, but 7 is the max – don’t make us give you the Vaudeville hook!
- Bands are welcome, but we’ll only have one mic set up so band performances will be acoustic.
- Performers must register. Those who register at least a day in advance will be assigned an estimated performance time. Participants who register that day will be slotted in after the registered performers, and we’ll get through as many of you as we can before the event ends at 1:30 p.m.
