Featured Artist | Jasai Open Mic | Jasai Theater Festival 2025
With a name that echoes classical greatness and a voice that pulses with raw, present-day power, Bae Thoven isn’t here to entertain, they’re here to unearth. A multidisciplinary artist whose creative journey began on the theater stage, Bae brings a masterful blend of performance, poetry, and profound vulnerability to every mic they touch.
What began as a love for embodying characters in scripted roles has evolved into something deeper: the fearless art of telling their own truth.
Through spoken word, Bae dissects identity, unpacks survival, and reflects the subtleties of being human in a world that often demands masks. Their work doesn’t just ask to be heard, it refuses to be ignored.
A standout voice at @hotspitshow, Bae has made a name in Philly’s underground arts scene by blending theatrical rhythm with lyrical grit. And while they speak honestly about the lack of unity and challenges in the business of the arts, Bae Thoven has mastered the art of navigating the mess with meaning, offering both mirror and medicine to their audience.
🎤 “Time is gonna move regardless. You either move with it or stay stuck.”
Don’t miss Bae Thoven as they take the stage at Jasai Open Mic, a night where every word has weight and every performance is purpose.
