The Speakeasy Comes Alive for the Holidays

Christian J. Collier and Mark “Porkchop” Holder will be joining forces again on December 17^th at the Moccasin Bend Brewing Company (4015 Tennessee Ave.) in St. Elmo. For over a year, the two have been responsible for the Strange Bedfellows shows at the Brewery. This time, however, they are hosting The Speakeasy Revue, a unique open-mic night showcasing an eclectic blend of poetry/spoken word and music.

The Speakeasy debuted in 2009 and has been facilitated and hosted by Collier. Over the past two years, the open-mic has had a unique and diverse array of readers and performers, including multiple Pushcart Prize nominees and even acclaimed comedian Doug Stanhope.

Doors will open for The Speakeasy Revue at 8PM. Those interested in performing will also be able to sign-up at that time. Admission is $5 at the door. For more information, Christian J. Collier can be reached at thespeakeasypoetry@gmail.com.
