GAG! welcomes the Queen of NYC nightlife, Susanne Bartsch, and the iconic Amanda Lepore to North Carolina for a collab to gag for!The legendary Susanne Bartsch, known for her world-renowned parties, is bringing On Top! from the roof of LeBain to join forces with GAG! at The Fruit & Club Era in Durham, NC!
Meet & Greet tickets are available as an add-on to your order. Look closely for the option as you're checking out! Proceeds go to the NC Alliance of AIDS Services.
Susanne Bartsch is New York City’s patron saint of transformation and inclusion. The parties she’s thrown for three decades—from Paris to Tokyo—have provided a venue for countless creative souls and “creatures” to express themselves, come together and forget the hum-drum of the everyday. Wherever Ms. Bartsch goes, the demimonde seems to follow, as if summoned by the bat of her curlicued fake eyelashes.” Fashion mogul John Badum once referred to Susanne as “Mother Teresa in a glitter G-string.”
This c*nty collaboration brings that legacy directly to NC — featuring a performance by Amanda Lepore, a living icon who needs no introduction, alongside DJs from Susanne’s On Top! parties.
