Teen Angst Night | Fox Cabaret
Jan 17, 2025 (UTC-8)ENDED
Vancouver
Somewhere in the back of your closet gathering dust and turning yellow with age is comedic gold: those old journals, poems, and essays you wrote as a teenager when you thought you could do no wrong. If you were to read them today you’d probably cringe at your former feelings. Now, imagine sharing them in front of an audience. That’s exactly what happens at Teen Angst Night. Teen Angst Night is a comedic reading series. Readers can share anything (poetry, songs, letters, journals, diaries, essays, stories, plays, lists, livejournals, Facebook status updates etc.) so long as it follows these rules: 1- The work must be your own. 2- You must have written it between the ages of 10-19. 3- You cannot be proud of the work you share. It’s best if you’re super embarrassed. Want to be a part of the show? This show is fully booked for readers. If you'd like to be part of an upcoming show you can sign up to read HERE Readers get free entry for them plus a friend, plus a small honorarium.

TBC ABOUT THE SHOW: Hosted by Sara Bynoe, Teen Angst Night has been running since 2000 and has been featured on CBC Radio too many times to count, has been featured and mentioned as a notable event highlight in The Vancouver Sun/Province, The Georgia Straight, The Globe and Mail, The Daily Hive, and many more local and national media outlets. More info here: https://sarabynoe.com/shows/teen-angst/ MEDIA THOUGHTS ABOUT TEEN ANGST NIGHT “But is it real comedy? It most certainly is. People love to laugh and there are many routes to arrive at that destination. Is it traditional? It most certainly is not. It’s not what the average person envisions when they think of comedy. But regular shows would kill for these kinds of laughs.” Georgia Straight “Teen Angst Night is a good time” CFOX Radio “I like it when the definition of “theatre” gets stretched. That’s what Sara Bynoe’s doing.” … “I gut laughed the whole evening. So did the rest of the audience. It was a full house. It always is. – TJ Dawe in the Charlebois Post

The Fox Cabaret at 2321 Main Street, Vancouver BC In the Ojibway language, the word Zoongide’ewin means “bravery, courage, the Bear Spirit.” It’s no wonder Daniel Monkman adopted Zoon as their musical moniker. The Hamilton-based musician has spent the better part of their 28 years finding and channelling their strength to overcome such adversities as racism, poverty and addiction. Music saved Monkman’s life. And, on Zoon’s debut album, Bleached Wavves, they paint a message of hope and fortitude, lessons they learned studying the Seven Grandfather teachings after experiencing the lowest point of their life. Born and raised in Selkirk, Manitoba, a small prison town outside of Winnipeg they describe as “one of the roughest places,” Monkman constantly faced an uphill battle. In their teens they were victimized for their First Nations heritage, which led them to abusing drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism. Their best friend died of an overdose; they nearly followed him on multiple occasions. But with the spiritual guidance they learned from 12-step therapy, Monkman got clean and began to follow a passion for music they discovered from a young age growing up within the Brokenhead Ojibway Nation. Bleached Wavves is the first true document of what has been dubbed “moccasin-gaze,” a tongue-in-cheek nickname for the amalgamation of Monkman’s shoegaze influences with traditional First Nations music. Like My Bloody Valentine’s Loveless, a record that changed everything for them, Zoon pushes forward that famously quixotic, effects-laden sound with a distinctive, new approach. A song like “Help Me Understand,” which mixes traditional hand drumming with gliding waves of droning guitar, feels like new ground has been broken for shoegaze fanatics to obsess over. As they got more into this mindset of mixing cultures, Monkman went even further with their trials, emerging with their most radical vision, the trance-inducing “Was & Always Will Be.” Like most things in their life, making the album didn’t come easy for Monkman. Their gear was stolen, leaving them with virtually nothing and forcing them to get creative. They recorded the songs in their bedroom and jam space, using only a Fender Deville guitar, a DigiTech delay pedal and - channelling their hero Kevin Shields - some “reverse engineering.” Once it was finished, they got the music into the hands of the late publicist Darryl Weeks, who quickly became a fan of what he heard. With Weeks’ guidance and industry knowledge, Monkman found an ally willing to help out. They also found a label: Weeks passed on the record to fellow shoegaze enthusiast Trevor Larocque at Paper Bag Records, who offered to give Zoon a home. While there is a healthy population of nu-gazers creating beautiful noise all over the world, Zoon’s debut stands out from all the others. Bleached Wavves is notable not just for its breathtakingly inimitable sounds and giving birth to a newfangled subgenre (see “moccasin-gaze”), but also for its modest, resourceful creation, the sign of a true sonic genius-in-the-making.

Over the course of the evening, assemble with Fillip’s community while we mingle, share stories, and celebrate Fillip’s contributions to contemporary art discourse over libations and small bites. On the night, we will launch a special edition publication, the Image Index: 2005–2024, and present a Library documenting our twenty-year history, with free gifts and surprise guests! A commissioned sound work by Mnemonic Pulse will set the tone for an evening of celebration and reflection in the elegant setting of Hycroft Manor. Please join us in celebrating twenty years of Fillip. Here’s to twenty more! Nilima Nheikh (left) and Geeta Kapur (right) at the Kasauli Art Centre Indo-German Artists Workshop, 1983.
