BYOP (Bring Your Own People) is a 90-minute “literary cocktail party” coordinated by the Guild Complex in which popular Chicago reading series with very different styles come together to present their work. The three series featured are the Encyclopedia Show, a creative literary cabaret developed around verbal encyclopedia entries; Reconstruction Room, which offers energetic theme parties that mix literature, art, and performance; and Rhino Reads!, which features top emerging poets from the Chicago area and is responsible for the literary journal Rhino.
