Jack it is an open mic for the ruthless, for the passionate, for the overdriven performers looking for a fix of the stage. It is also for the lepak crowd whose love is to celebrate ruthless, passionate, overdriven performers. Every show is a celebration at Jack It and every show is a lepak session and we #LepakHard!
In the usual spirit of Jacking It, we encourage performers to bring their art and register at the door for open mic slots. Each open mic performer gets 5-7 minutes on stage so please be sure to be mindful of your time. Don’t forget to come early too – registration opens at 7pm
