Darlington for Culture (DfC) will stage the next in its series of open mic nights for authors and audiences at Darlington Arts Centre on Monday May 28. Run by John Dean, the events form part of the programme run at the centre by DfC, which is a Community Benefit Society, a type of co-operative.
Seven open mic nights have already been held by DfC, all on the last Monday of each month. Open mic nights are events where authors can take to the floor and read their material, anything from prose and poetry to screenwriting and theatre. They take place at 7pm and the cost of entry is £3 paid on the door. There is an open theme and writers are restricted to eight minutes on stage.
