First things first.. what does it mean?

In the game of Dominos, el Capicu is a very special winning piece that covers both ends, it is the ultimate finishing move.

Any piece can become the Capicu, with the right mixture of skill and fate. The Fichas (as dominos are sometimes called) are slammed down on the table for emphasis, in celebration!

We are a grassroots cultural house of poetry and performing arts in New York City, formed in Brooklyn.

Founded in March 2007, Capicu made it's presence known in NYC by featuring both veteran as well as up and coming performers of spoken word, comedy, prominent visual artists, up and coming entrepreneurs, comedians and various musical artists. We are supported by some of NYC's most powerful artists & musicians including some of the elders from Nuyorican Movement.

We welcome all styles and poets, though our showcase is themed around our Nuyorican origins. For the open mic and cultural show in Brooklyn, we use the space at Notice Lounge, one of the neighborhoods premiere mid sized bars, located securely across the street from the 90th Police Precinct in Williamsburg. We also develop open mic and featured artists events all across NYC and Long Island.
