Spit Dat in Residence

DC’s Longest Running Open Mic! 

SPIT DAT is the longest-running open mic in the nation’s capital. Spit Dat combines world-class talent with an intimate artistic experience in Woolly Mammoth’s “living room” lobby. As much a “venue” as it is an “event”, Spit Dat has won multiple awards for its contribution to the growth of generations of acclaimed international artists.

Tickets are free and on sale for the entire season calendar! Check back closer to each event for featured artists and sign up sheets. Follow Woolly Mammoth on Instagram for announcements. 

On Monday, June 8th at 8pm, Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company and Spit Dat bring you this month’s open mic featuring Micki Topham & Chris Thomas! Add to the energy as an audience member or share your own talents on the mic. Hosted by Drew Anderson and Miko Reed! (641 D St NW DC)

SPIT DAT is the longest-running open mic in the nation’s capital. A profoundly intimate artistic and spiritual experience which has fought to remain a safe space through over 20 years of societal changes, Spit Dat combines world-class talent with a living room vibe. As much a “venue” as it is an “event”, Spit Dat has won multiple awards for its contribution to the growth of generations of acclaimed international artists. But perhaps its most valued accolade lives in being renowned among its staunch community as no less than “Church.”
