DC TRAUMEDY FESTIVAL, brought to you by Rola Niche Shows and MEI, made possible by a grant from DC Comission on the Arts and Humanities. @thedcarts May 17th: Panel Discussion at MEI at 1130am. May 17th: Comedy Show at MEI 7pm. May 18th: Comedy at Busboys and Poets, Anacostia. Tickets in my bio. Welcome to our first DC Traumedy Festival where laughter meets healing in the most unexpected and profound ways. Step into a world where comedians fearlessly confront their pain, turning personal traumas into powerful sources of laughter and connection. Here, the stage becomes a sacred space where vulnerability reigns supreme and healing is as infectious as laughter itself. DC Traumedy Festival isn't just about laughter—it's about transformation. As you laugh along with the comedians, you'll find yourself confronted with your own pain, your own struggles, and your own resilience. In the warmth of shared laughter, walls come down, barriers dissolve, and healing begins. Whether you're grappling with past traumas or simply seeking a night of laughter and healing, DC Traumedy Festival will hopefully offer you some catharsis. #dccomedy #dcshow #dccomedyfestival #dctraumedyfestival #meievents #dcshows #busboysandpoets #dcartsandhumanities #dcarts #entertaindc #202creates #mentalhealthawareness

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and this event finna cure my depression 😂😂🔥🔥 I’ve seen our feature @willcookcreates countless times over the years and I have NEVER been disappointed‼️ The only regret I have is not having him feature sooner 💯 Next Friday, you’re going to laugh, throw your pen, consider retirement, and book a therapy session all before you get your food 😭 I can’t wait for this show. I DEMAND A SOLD OUT SHOW 🗣️ So get your tickets now 👊🏿 Link in my bio 🎟️➡️ . . . Will Cook got his start in the poetry scene in September 2022 and hasn’t looked back since. Blending wordplay with emotion, Will has written about everything from generational trauma and his experience with PTSD to pieces about finding faith in the small things. As a small business owner, Will runs Will Cook Tutors, a math tutoring company for K-12 students. He uses his background in education and entrepreneurship to mold his poetry. Will hosts The Garden Open Mic every first Friday at BloomBars in NW DC and is dedicated to sharing radical acceptance to everyone who comes out to an open mic. He’s been called The Chef, other times Ponytail Got Bars, so one things for sure: Will Cook will cook. . . . #busboysandpoets #dmvopenmic #cooking #dcdatenight #poetryinmotion #dcpoet #dmvpopupshop #dccah #artsindc

As much as I done walked up and down Good Hope Road, I would’ve never ever thought they would’ve placed a Busboys and Poets right here! On top of their amazing food, their customer service is top notch and the manager on duty yesterday was very attentive and involved with the entire restaurant from the front end to the back! I’d recommend taking an Uber as there is literally nowhere to park, unless you know how to manuever on that side🙃 iykyk 📍 @busboysandpoets - Anacostia 2004 Martin Luther King Jr. Ave SE Washington, DC 20020 #dmvfood #dmvfoodie #dcrestaurants #busboysandpoets #ward8 #explore #dmv #explorepage #fyp #foodie #foodiegram #falafel

2 weeks before Covid, I watched this man tell a hilarious joke educating and inspiring about Palestine. I had started comedy a few days earlier and asked him what I should do in this field. Majdy said “do it and see where it takes you”. The next time I saw him, we shared a stage at the Gotham Comedy Club at NY Arab American Comedy Festival. That’s where I decided to create Funny Arabs Show in DC. Thanks for the inspiration, bro. DC - if you want cerebral comedy that matters, come to our show this weekend. Majdy has won The Moth Storytelling Competition many times and Debuted his show “A Bro’s Tale” to sold out audiences at Capital Fringe Festival last year. Watch my funny friend at Busboys and Poets this Friday. Link in bio. #dccomedy #palestinianartist #comediansofinstagram #funnyarabs #busboysandpoets #comedyshow

The night of the launch event for Talking to Sissy, my family gathered at a resturaunt called Busboys and Poets in celebration of my accomplishment. I had never been to the establishment before but had friends and family who had raved about the food, and I was excited to finally eat there. Imagine my surprise when I entered the resturaunt and saw an entire bookstore at the front of the building. So many books and related items available for purchase. I was in awe. Immediately I began to explore titles and merchandise. I only stopped in my tracks when a family member suggested I inquire about having my book placed there. Long story short, I did inquire and today I am so humbled to share that Talking to Sissy will be available at Busboys and Poets in Washington, DC. 😊🫶🏾🙀 #busboysandpoets #bookstore #bookstores #BookstoreAdventure #BookstoreAdventure #bookstoresofinstagram #bookstorecafe #bookstorelove #bookstorerestaurant #bookstorerestaurants #bookstorerestock #talkingtosissy #goodvibesonly #goodnews #GoodNews #happy #yay #me #yayme #motivatedmindset #NewRelease2024 #celebrateyourself #AuthorLife #authorsupportauthors #AuthorsSupportAuthors #blackauthorsnetwork #blackauthorsrock📚 #BlackAuthor

A Saturday at @busboysandpoets 🍸 In recognition of #NationalPoetryMonth, I thought it was only fitting to visit #BusboysAndPoets as my next Indie DC Bookstore adventure! The store is actually part of a larger chain all around the DMV, and I decided to visit their original location on 14th street for this excursion. I’ll admit, I had my hopes up. It’s a brand with multiple locations and lots of chatter online. I’d planned to branch out of my comfort zone, lean into the spirit of the month and buy a poetry collection! However, what I found was not so much a bookstore & restaurant, but a restaurant that happened to have a bookstore. Like how Cracker Barrel has a giftshop. I would not recommending going to Busboys & Poets in order to shop for books. While I admit I’m not the broadest reader, I had trouble finding ANY books I recognized. The poetry section? Was small and felt shoved into a corner next to their bargain books. As you can guess from the lone picture, I did not end up buying anything, which is the first store I’ve visited on this mission where that’s been the case. It’s worth a note that my disappointment over the book shopping situation is not enough to turn me off from ever returning. It will just be to check out more of the Busboys & Poets menu as I enjoyed my grilled cheese and lavender lemonade served up by very friendly bar staff! The vibe of the whole place was casual and artsy and I’d love to come back with a gaggle of creative friends for a meal. But as a bookstore? 1/5 ⭐ #DCBookstore #DCBookshop #DCRestuarant #DCTrip #LocalDc #ShopSmall #SuportIndieBookstores #WashingtonDC #DCTrip
