Showcase Night
Last Wednesday Monthly at 8pm
Admission is FREE
Featuring Drink Specials All Night!
Booking a spot:
The New Open Mic Competition will be held on the last Wednesday of every month.
There will be 8 spots available for the competition. All performers will
be expected to have a 5 minute set prepared. After 4 minutes have
passed, a light will be flashed to inform the performer to end their set
in 1 minute. If the performer goes over their allotted time, the mic
will be cut off and the host will return to the stage to continue the
show. Each performer in the competition will be expected to bring a
minimum of 5 guests* in order to get stage time (NO EXCEPTIONS). All 5
guests* must be in the club at show time in order for the performer to
get stage time that night (You need an audience to perform for).
Audience votes determine the winner so, the more friends a performer
brings, the better chance he has of winning the competition. At the very
end of the show the winner will be announced. The prize for winning
will be $25 and a 5 minute guest spot on a regular Thursday night show
(Some exceptions will be granted for other nights). Performers may win
only once within the calendar year but may perform as many times as it
takes to win, providing there is space available. All winners will be
expected to perform in a Special Show in December to determine
Milwaukee’s Funniest Open Mic comedian. The winner of that
show/competition will receive a special prize to be determined later in
the year.
There will also be 3 spots available for when the competition portion of
the night has finished. These performers will entertain the crowd while
votes are being tallied and drink tabs are being added up. The 3 spots
will not be required to bring guests but will be expected to do 7-10
minutes, with a 1 minute light, depending on how much time is needed to
tally votes and add up drink tabs.
All performers are required to arrive no later than 7:45pm to receive
their order in the nights performance and any other instruction that may
be necessary. If a performer arrives after 7:45pm, then we invite them
to stay to watch the show as an audience member because they will not be
performing that night (Respect the stage).
