I am helping coordinate performers for Nights on the Neck this season. We are going to try to have the season scheduled by the end of April, so we can get posters and publicity ready and out early this year. Nights on the Neck are the first Thursday of the month, June-September. The dates this year are June 7, July 5, August 2 and September 6, and the event runs from 5:30-9:30. We expect to have about 8 performances along Rocky Neck each of the nights, with performance durations from 45 minutes to 1-1/2 hours. Those of you who have performed here in the past already know how well attended and fun Nights on the Neck are. This will be our first season as a newly designated Massachusetts Cultural District, so we are looking to really amp things up and offer a first class cultural event for the community and visitors to Cape Ann. If you would like to perform, please email me at khanstudio@comcast.net with the date(s) you are available and the time that works best for you, as well as what you do, your performance duration, and specific needs. Also, if you have a preference as to the gallery or location where you would like to perform, please let me know. Some locations may also specifically request performers who have performed at their locations in the past, so we want to try to accommodate everyone as best we can. Also email me with any other questions you might have.
So as to create a well-rounded cultural event, and not upset our Rocky Neck neighbors, we are looking for performers that have something fun, thought provoking, unique, exciting, all ages appropriate, and not overly loud to offer. If you are a musician, spoken word poet, juggler, dancer, comedian, writer, puppeteer, mentalist, hypnotist, storyteller, etc. who would like to be a part of creating a great Nights on the Neck experience, step forward.
