About this Event
We’re taking over multiple floors of the former McKittrick Hotel—the one-time home of Sleep No More, Twilo, and Sound Factory—for a wild night of nonstop entertainment, from rivalries in the ring to burlesque acts and literary readings on desire.
Here’s what to expect:
Pleasure-Seeking: Literary Readings & Burlesque
6:30 Doors, Show 7-8:30PM
We’ll start in The Red Room, a dimly-lit lounge where you’ll be treated to titillating burlesque acts and risqué readings from writers like Caroline Calloway, Magdalene J. Taylor, Mackenzie Thomas, Noelle Perdue, Whitney Mallett and Anika Jade Levy.
Queer Punk Outlaws: Brawls & Bands
8:00 Doors, Show 8:30-11:30PM
The show moves downstairs, where enemies (and lovers) will go toe-to-toe in the ring for a series of over-the-top performances that will leave you ready to kiss, fight, or both.
VIP Afterparty: The Midnight Show
11:00 Doors, Performances Midnight-4AM
After hours, we’ll gather in the Red Room for an even more intimate, unfiltered show—from sideshow spectacles to Shibari suspensions and boundary-pushing burlesque and drag acts. A great option for those who want to keep the party going, and mingle with some of New York’s coolest (and hottest) writers, creatives, and performers til 4AM.
