Huh?
Special Guest is the open mic night where anything goes. Anyone can take the stage to share anything for 60 seconds. Expect creative talks, shower thoughts, true stories, hidden talents, deep and meaningfuls, and much more.
How it works:
Listen, clap, cheer. Support your fellow special guests.
Sit back, listen, and enjoy the ride.
If you want to, you can take the mic to share anything for 60 seconds. It's optional.
Previously, members of the audience have taken the mic to… share their grandmother’s wisdom, say what they wish they’d said to their ex, dance, announce a surprise holiday, apologise to their vagina, play the nose flute, pun on command, ask for a hug, reveal a tattoo of Phil Mitchell, share their life motto, fulfil their dream to crowdsurf, source baby name suggestions, observe a minute of silence, form a human pyramid, serenade the audience, thank their dad, hand out free plantain, and much more.
