Under the Influence is a performance series created by Evan Karp and Lapo Guzzini for The Emerald Tablet, an art gallery and event space in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood, that recurs on the fourth Friday of every month.

Details are below, including contact info if you have any questions. Thanks!

We are always accepting submissions! Send original work that in some way reflects an influence of your choice. In other words, you choose Fyodor Dostoevsky as your influence; you send us a passage or passages of his that reflect certain characteristics of your own work, and that you would like to read at our show; you also send in your original work.

The rules:

  1. Your total performance time may take but not exceed 15 minutes.
  2. Submissions will be kept on file on a rolling basis. We will let you know we received your submission and will contact you again separately if/when it makes a good fit for one of our shows.
That's it! If you have any questions at all, please let us know by sending a line to info [at] undertheinfluence [dot] org.
