Open Secret – that welcoming, second SpokenWord – every Wednesday at Le Bistrot des Artistes, 6 rue des Anglais, 5è. Métro Maubert-Mutualité (line 10) or Saint-Michel (line 4). At 8 PM, nightlong signup starts, & at 9 the show…Poetry, music, comedy, theatre, performance art, & dance. This Wednesday’s theme is inspired by a poem of special guest Chris Burke’s – “Write it down dammit!”
