Neil Genzlinger of the New York Times calls Late Night Series: "An Eclectic performance orgy"

The Late Night Series is a weekly, FREE, two hour event that starts in the late evening. From the familiar to the outlandish, you'll see it all during this eclectic night of poetry, drama, dance, comedy & live music. Bring your friends along and enjoy a uniquely entertaining night, and discover the unique and talented artists that Philadelphia and its surrounding areas have to offer!

Signup at 8pm, or e-mail Christina@latenightseries.com to schedule a spot

I was just at its first night, 2/2/06. A good scene - very positive host; attentive audience; good vibes; a mix of spoken word, comedy, and music; no smoke in the air. Despite being part of the Late Night Series, the show doesn't go very late, just 9 to 11. There were/apparently will be a number of featured performers, so with a short night there's not a lot of slots for walk-in signups, each getting 5 min./one song. The flyer says "for more information email LNSPhilly@comcast.net" and bears this quote about the LNS-Jersey: "a coffehouse/poetry slam/hip-hop amalgam".
