Featuring: Claire Moed and Laura Boss

Native New Yorker Claire Moed, a writer and film director, will read from "Wire Monkey," about the adventures of a 17-year-old girl from the tough Lower East Side. Laura Boss writes with terrifying honesty about the sexual terror and dependency of the suddenly single and middle-aged. Women's Poetry Jam is hosted by Vittoria Repetto, the hardest working guinea butch dyke on the Lower East Side. Open mike sign-up starts at 7PM, so come and deliver (up to) 8 minutes of your poetry, prose, songs, and spoken word.
