H.R. Britton, Speak Up Feature "Melting in Madras", Wed July 14, Lynn, MA
H.R. Britton will be the featured performer at SPEAK UP Spoke Word Open Mike this
Wednesday, July 14th at Tatiana's Restaurant in Lynn, MA. Melting In Madras is a
funny and reflective solo show about seeking, singing and sickness. In 1995, as a wide-eyed,
just-out-of-college 23-year-old, H.R. traveled to South India to explore yoga, meditation, and
music for a year. But after three months, his quest for spiritual clarity took a detour when he
became seriously ill. Drawing on character work, live music, and storytelling, Melting in Madras
vividly paints portraits of the people he met, and weaves his work into “a moving and humorous
account of an India less traveled.” BackStage called H.R. “an engaging storyteller... one honest,
likable guy telling his story with unaffected simplicity."
Check out H. R. Britton's webpage http://www.overcoattheater.com for more juicy details.
SPEAK UP! meets every Wednesday. We gather at 7 PM. Sign up begins at
7 PM. You will get your own five minute slot of fame at the microphone.
The Open Mike starts at 7:30. Our featured performer goes on at 8:30 PM
followed by more Open Mikers till 10 PM. See you at SPEAK UP!

PS. Sunday Evening Music and More Open Mike hosted by our pal Don White happens
every Sunday evening at the Walnut Street Coffee Cafe at 157 Walnut Street, Lynn.
It kicks off at 6:00 PM sharp. Folks can sing two songs or have the mike for 10 minutes,
which ever is shorter.
At 7:30 PM the musical feature holds reign for half an hour, followed
by more Open Mikers. Cold beer, good tunes, good sandwiches. Now that's living!
Spoken Word is also welcome at this open mike just so you know.
(This Musical Open Mike is NOT taking the place of Speak Up. It's in addition to it.
Don White is crazy, crazy busy, and crazy wonderful for the community he loves.)
