Kevin Beverley as Monostatos at Queen of the Night. And again in GIF form:
I have a few fun video clips from QotN as well: a variety of hoop antics, Kyle Driggs juggling, and Julien Silliau as Monostatos (from a different night).

It turns out that Queen of the Night is actually amazing if you ignore the part where they tell you it’s immersive theatre and instead assume you’re in for some kind of fetish-y, circus-y, carnivorous burlesque show. With 1:1s and birdcages full of lobsters. Not good if you’re shy or squeamish about dead animals, but otherwise great. Don’t bother with the fancy tickets, go for the cheapest option available.

Though my first visit was only a couple of weeks ago, I was back at Queen of the Night recently to keep chadchronicles company on his first visit. It felt more crowded than before, and I was disappointed that drinks are no longer included with the gala ticket (except for one cocktail and one round of wine for the table). But the show is still solid, and the cast are all pretty great. On a related note: feel free to buy me a premium ticket. I’ll even give you lobster bartering tips.
Amusingly, I just got this un-proofread email from the show:
Okay, I’ll share my memories: I remember when the booze was free.

Sometimes you go to a codpiece party at Queen of the Night, and the best thing that happens all night is a balloon codpiece on your head.

I don’t know why all the things I like are so expensive. But they totally are.

Anonymous asked:

I am visiting NYC for a week toward the end of this month. If you could plan a week's worth of theatre / nightlife events, what would you pick? Assume cost is not an issue.

Sleep No More (and if “toward the end of this month” means Halloween week, plan on at least one night of the Halloween party as well)
Then She Fell
Play/Date
Rococo Rouge
Queen of the Night (and if cost is really not an issue, get premium or better tix)
Cabaret
Hedwig and the Angry Inch

With the option of skipping Cabaret and/or Hedwig for whatever especially good burlesque shows are happening. I can’t tell you what these are, though, since you did not actually specify what dates you are here.

I’m still not over Nutcracker Rouge and I don’t expect to be anytime soon.

Last night was pretty much a perfect New York evening, the kind that makes me happier than I can say with my life as it is right now. And I don’t think there’s a better way to spend the evening of the 4th than at a picnic on the roof of the McKittrick, watching fireworks with friends & fellow drunks.

eleven years ago tonight! I believe this was the only 4th of july event the mckittrick has ever had, and it was also the first event held at gallow green.
