The 1st & 3rd Tuesday Night Cafe
The You're Awesome Show - A Show About Sisterhood
**In honor of this show’s focus on sisterhood, the open mic lottery will be specifically reserved for femmes, womxn, women, trans, non-binary, genderfluid and/or gender non-conforming folks.
Hey you! Yea you. You're awesome.
We're taking an evening to celebrate sisterhood and all the ways that it continues to drive our community forward.
We are using "sisterhood" as an inclusive term to uplift, celebrate and amplify the fierce voices, spirits and bodies whose work and existence keep us all building and thriving as a greater whole.
We recognize the limits of the English language and language around gender in general and will continue to have discussions around the language we use as a space and how it relates to our core values.
Now the longest currently running Asian American mic series in the country, TNC highlights new work in visual and performing arts from the Los Angeles and Asian American artistic community in Los Angeles’ Little Tokyo. Join us for our landmark 20th season at one of the longest running free public arts series' in downtown Los Angeles.
