Columbia College Chicago Theatre Department alumnus Mikey Harniker hosts Open Mic with Mikey at the Glenwood tavern, located at 6962 N. Glenwood in Chicago’s Rogers Park neighborhood. Presented by Pride North, the next open mic takes place Tuesday, March 3, from 7 to 11 PM.

“The stage is a place to celebrate a diversity of experiences, talents, dreams and forms of expression that craves an audience. For example, stage is open to musicians, singer/songwriters, poets, story tellers, theatre makers, dancers, male and female impersonators, ranters/ravers, live editorials and comedian all welcome to transform the mic stage,” says Harniker.

The Glenwood’s open mic sessions take place the first and final Tuesday of each month. Performance slots are still open; it is encouraged to confirm a spot ahead of time, but on-the-spot sign-up is available — as are drink specials. For more information or to reserve a performance slot, contact Mikey Harniker on Facebook.
