SUMMARY:Brown Cometry Nite
DESCRIPTION:Brown Cometry Nite coming this August 25th live back at D’Antigua Queens! \nSo many have been asking when is the next Cometry. So here it is! \n\n\n\nCometry Nite is back. \nCometry started with Sahed and Emcee Del bringing two worlds together — comedy + poetry — and creating a stage where both could live in the same room. \nThis August\, Lucky joins Sahed to host Brown Cometry Nite\, a celebration of the artists\, performers\, and cultures around us. \nWhy Brown Cometry? \nBecause look around us. This is New York City. \nWe live among people with stories\, jokes\, poems\, songs\, languages\, cultures\, immigrant histories\, neighborhood lore\, heartbreak\, ridiculous families\, and things they’ve been waiting for an excuse to say into a microphone. \nAnd we want to make room for that and celebrate the storytelling that exists within it. \nFor the next Cometrynite in Queens\, we’re bringing together brown stand-up comedians\, poets\, spoken word artists\, musicians\, friends\, and a room full of people willing to listen. \nCome laugh. Come listen. Come discover somebody. Come perform. \nOr just spend a Tuesday evening with us. \n  \n🎤 The Open Mic\nOpen Mic sign-up is open now. \nStand-up comedy. Spoken word. Poetry. Music. Something you wrote in your Notes app at 2 AM and have never said out loud. \nBe brave! \nYou don’t need to be a professional performer. Bring us something you’ve been working on\, something you’ve never performed before\, or something you think this room needs to hear. \nAnd yes\, there are prizes. \n🥇 1st Place — $100 Gift Card \n🥈 2nd Place — $75 Gift Card \n🥉 3rd Place — $25 Gift Card \nWant the mic? \nDM @cometrynite on Instagram to sign up. \nLimited performance slots will also be available at the venue beginning at 7 PM. \n  \n✨ Who You’ll See\nDanish / @dmaq1 — Comedy \nEmcee Del / @emceedel — Spoken Word \nMati / @mati_gaika — Music \nPranav / @pranahaha — Comedy \nTeentara / @teentaramusic — Music \nWheel of Notes / @wheelofnotes — Music \nZubi / @chopzubicomedy — Comedy \nThese are artists we’re excited about\, and part of the reason we wanted to bring everyone into the same room. \nAnd that’s before we find out who gets brave enough to sign up for the Open Mic! \n  \nThe Nite\nWe’re keeping the agenda simple: \n7 PM — Doors + Open Mic Sign-Up \nOpening — Lucky + Sahed welcome you to Cometry \nOpen Mic — A little bit of everything \nIntermission — Eat\, drink\, mingle \nFeatured Performances — Comedy\, spoken word + live music \nFinale — Open Mic winners + closing out the nite \nThere may be a few surprises along the way. We’ll see where the night takes us. \n  \n📍 D’Antigua · Queens\nWe’re back at D’Antigua Restaurant & Bar on Northern Boulevard in Queens — a restaurant\, bar\, and gathering space where we can settle in for the whole evening. \nCome early. Get a table. Order dinner. Grab a drink. Bring a friend. \nTalk to somebody. Meet an artist. Cheer loudly for the person doing their first Open Mic. Stay for the music. \nWe want it to feel like a casual night out in Queen\, with a ton of cool people around! \nThere’s so much talent around us\, especially here in NYC. Brown Cometry is our excuse to gather some of it in one room\, this time near Jackson Heights\, and celebrate the people making us laugh\, think\, feel\, and listen. \nCome see who’s around you. Bring your peeps. \nSee you there\, \nLucky + Sahed \nBrown Cometry Nite \nOpen Mic: DM @cometrynite on Instagram to sign up. \nFor event questions\, feature booking requests\, or accommodations\, contact cometry.nite@gmail.com. \n  \n  \n  \n
