Let's ignore all the BS being thrown at us for a night, escape to a wonderful bar, dance till our feet hurt, and take in some of the best stage performers in town. Despite all the shit being thrown at us; we're here, we're queer, and we know how to throw a party. The doors are at 9pm, the first set of performances start at 11pm, the second set of performances start at 12:30am, and dancing happens all night long. This is a queer alternative dance night and drag show for our LGBTQIA+ family and allies, if that offends you, you and your shitty opinion can fuck right off.
