Buddies in Bad Times
Buddies in Bad Times Theatre turns into a wildly busy nightclub on the weekends. Drag Queens take their places on a long flight of stairs located in the middle of the dance floor. The DJs spin top 40 pop, dance, and house, while the Queens give attitude by stomping up and down those stairs in the highest of high heels, entertaining hundreds of gay boys and, typically, about a dozen ladies.
Join hosts Raymond Helkio and Jonathan Freeman for another afternoon of queer provocation, poetry and prose. This month our featured artist is performance poet JEAN ADAMS!
This is an all-ages, licensed PWYC event, allies always welcome! Open mic slots are 3 minutes and if you’d like to read please sign-up at the door.
