PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS INFORMATION BEFORE SENDING AN OPEN MIC REQUEST. WE WILL NOT RESPOND TO REQUESTS NOT SENT DURING THE CORRECT SIGNUP PERIOD.
SIGNUP INSTRUCTIONS: To get a spot in the Wednesday Open Mic: send an email ON WEDNESDAY before 3pm; for Friday: send one ON FRIDAY before 3pm. Send to: info@brodytheater.com with the subject “open mic” or if you are a member of the Portland Comics Facebook group, send a message via Facebook to Tom Johnson. If you get your request in on time, assume you have a spot. You will NOT hear back from us unless the mic is full and you do not have a spot. We won’t sign you up if your request is not sent on the day of the open mic before 3pm. The Wednesday mic frequently fills before the 3pm cutoff so if you want to ensure a spot and not be at the bottom of the list you should get your request in earlier.
Open mic slots are 4 to 5 minutes depending on the number of performers. Doors for Wednesday open a little after 9pm. There’s a class until 9. Please try to keep noise outside the door to a moderate level.
IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR FRIDAYS: The Friday open mic is now 10pm on the second, fourth, (and fifth, when there is one) Fridays of the month. There is no longer a late open mic after Fly-Ass Jokes shows on the first and third Fridays.
Open Mic admission is free for non performers, with a one-item minimum purchase.
