Description:

A Busboys and Poets event hosted this week by Orville Walker

Orville the Poet is Orville Walker Jr., one in the same. That’s why I don’t have a pen name or stage name, Orville the Poet is Orville the person. I’m a regular guy who happens to be observant and who was lent the great gift of words. Just trying to inspire those around me one poem at a time.

For two hours, audiences can expect a diverse chorus of voices and a vast array of professional spoken word performers, open mic rookies, musicians and a different host every week. Expect to be moved, expect a packed house, expect the unexpected, but above all come with an open mind and ear.

$5 Cover. On the day of the event, tickets can be purchased online here starting at midnight and in the restaurant starting at 10:00 AM (cash only). No refunds. Ticket purchase limit of 4 per person. Guests must have their wristbands (tickets) on upon entering the event.

Seating is available on a first come, first seated basis. No saved or reserved seats are allowed. Failure to check in within 30 minutes of advertised start time may result in a forfeiture of seats.
