Rhyme and PUNishment: Comedy Night at Page One!

Need more laughter in your life? Bored of the same old stand-up you've been seeing for years? Want comedy with some class? Then come to Page One Restaurant in scenic Glen Cove on Wednesday, June 6th, for a showing from Rhyme and PUNishment: Comedic Verse, sponsored by The Bards Initiative!

Get here at 7:30, grab a seat, get your order in, and be ready to start laughing at 8!

Guests will be treated to hilarious poetic readings from a variety of poets featured in the Rhyme and PUNishment anthology, ranging from the squeaky-clean chuckles to flaming unmentionables being used as weapons in a comedic coup d'etat guaranteed to overthrow your funny bone!

This Bards Initiative event is free to attend, but your donations are greatly appreciated, every penny of which goes directly to funding our various ongoing projects throughout Long Island. In addition, head chef and co-owner Jeanine DiMenna offers up a special $5 "bar menu" at all of our readings (if you'd prefer to see their standard fare menu, price fix, or reduced-fare "bailout" menu, please ask your server). We highly encourage you to come, relax, and enjoy some dinner with your comedy tonight.

In addition, copies of Rhyme and PUNishment will be available for $15 at the show.

The Bards Initiative is a multi-purpose poetry project dedicated to providing avenues for poets to share their work and encourages the use of poetry for social change. In addition, the Initiative aims to make use of modern technologies to help spread, encourage and inspire poetry particularly in the younger generations. It is the core belief of the Bards Initiative that poetry is the voice of the people and can be used to help create a sense of sharing and community.


Comically yours,

Marc Rosen
