The Turnage Theatre
150 West Main StreetJoin us for a special edition of Second Verse Open Mic Night, an evening dedicated to the power of the spoken word as we recognize Veterans Mental Health and Survivors Day.
Through poetry, storytelling, and spoken word, we'll create a welcoming space where voices can be heard, experiences can be shared, and community can come together in support of healing, resilience, and hope. Whether your words are deeply personal, inspirational, reflective, or uplifting, this is an opportunity to connect through authentic expression.
Writers and spoken word artists of all experience levels are invited to take the stage. First-time performers are always welcome, and audience members are encouraged to come listen, reflect, and support the voices of our community.
