THE THEME OF THE NIGHT IS “FLESH AND BONE: STORIES ABOUT THE FEMALE BODY’”

TICKETS ON SALE NOW

This month, we asked our performers to turn their gaze to the site of so much female joy and anxiety: our bodies. The ever-changing relationship we have to the vessels we move through life in is fraught and fascinating, funny and fearless. The messages we get from society, the media, even our own friends and family can be mixed and honestly, a mind f*ck. We invited our courageous storytellers to tell us a story about their body— their challenges or their truimphs. The way it’s bought them pain, or the pitter-patter of tiny feet, or better yet pleasure. Whatever it is, you expect our usual high quality stories, enjoyed in community in New York City.
