‘Miscast’ Open Mic Night with Sixteen Bars!
Be ready for an extra dose of spotlight and performances that will surely blow your mind!
For the upcoming eighth installment of the event, our theme will be “Anything Blows”, a play on words of the Cole Porter-penned 1934 musical classic (and the iconic song for which it is named), and also an homage to the theme of one of our previous Broadway Open Mic events, “Anything Goes”. In “Anything Blows”, guests will be encouraged to perform songs or monologues from roles in which they would typically be classified as “miscast” – whether because of gender, race, age, appearance, or even vocal sound and style.
So, if you’re a thirty two year old man, we would love to see you as Matilda! Astound the audience or be crowned the king of fools on this topsy turvy day! Cuz’ on stage, Anything Blows!
The Broadway Open Mic series is a semi-regular event that brings musical theatre enthusiasts together by creating a space where, accompanied by a pianist, they are free to perform musical theater songs in an audience of their peers. There are also activities at the event where participants stand to win prizes such as musical theatre-themed items.
Sixteen Bars is a performing arts education company whose goal is to provide the needs of developing theatre practitioners in Metro Manila.
