So Bevan, bless his heart, told Nigel that the last one was awesome. Then Nigel, bless his heart, thought we should do it again for all the peeps that couldn't afford the $100 ticket to the last one. So here we are.Many of the same artists and some.
*Watch this space for artist announcements.
I am thrilled to be invited to program this wonderful event that I started way back then, when Smith's was born again from Beth and Nigel's loins.
The Smith's Varietal was an opportunity for a diverse range of artists to jump on a stage and try things out. It was never curated - just the first people who applied, were programmed to do whatever they wanted every Wednesday night.
For the Anniversary REEEEMMMIIIXXX, I have programmed a range of performers from the past decade. There will be music, performance art, poetry and some uncategorisable happenings.
AND I am stepping in to my stagefright because I love this event so much, and will be MCing.
While this one is curated, keep your ear to the ground for the next Varietal call-out.
Smith's Varietal is open to all comers. There's no restrictions on genre, style, vulgarity, art form. We will accept virtually anyone or anything. Anything interesting, unusual and entertaining. But not illegal and not degrading to the human spirit.
