About this Event
The Most Hated Poets night, Reading and Open Mic, is on at DADA every last Tuesday of the month!
THE MOST HATED POETS WAS CREATED IN 2021 BY LONGTIME NYC POETS NOAH & OTHO AS A SPECTACULAR, UNIQUE & NEW VIRTUAL REALITY OPEN MIC EXPERIENCE WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN SEEN BY THE WORLD BEFORE. BEGINNING IN 2002, NOAH & OTHO CO-RAN NYC’S BUFFALO READINGS FOR 12 YEARS. CREATED AS A KNEE JERK REACTION TO THE LACK OF OPEN MICS IN NYC, THEY WERE KNOWN FOR THEIR CHAOTIC MIND EXPANDING WORDS, AND BECAME INFAMOUS FOR THEIR ALL NIGHT, TALENT HEAVY “JUST JUMP ON STAGE” IMPROVISATIONAL ANYTHING GOES READINGS. NOAH & OTHO FIRST HOSTED THEIR READINGS AT THE BRONX ACTIVIST SQUAT CASA DEL SOL, WHERE BY WOOD STOVE FIRE THEY SHOUTED WORDS UNTIL CASA WAS CLOSED DOWN BY THE POLICE AND DESTROYED IN A 4-ALARM FIRE. NOAH & OTHO REGROUPED WITH A JAZZ OPEN MIC AT THE BOWERY POETRY CLUB, FOLLOWED BY A SERIES OF JAZZ/POETRY RENT PARTIES THAT WERE FEATURED IN THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, AND ENDED THEIR 12 YEAR RUN WITH A READING SERIES AT STEVE CANNON’S THE GATHERING OF THE TRIBES GALLERY. NOAH & OTHO HAVE ALSO BEEN FEATURED NATIONWIDE INCLUDING AT THE NUYORICAN POETS CAFE, AND AS THE RESIDENT POETS ON THE OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS BLOG. AND NOW IT’S TIME FOR THE MOST HATED POETS TO TAKE THE STAGE IN THE FLESH. LISTEN TO WORDS AND THOUGHT AND DRINK YOUR LIVERS TO BUST. JOIN US AND DON’T BE LOVED, BE HATED.
