Antony and the Johnsons with Charles Atlas - Turning

I just can’t get enough of Pussy Faggot! The marathon event, run by curator and event organizer extraordinaire Earl Dax, celebrates queer identity and expression this Sunday at The Delancey (8 pm – 4 am). Last year, I collaborated with Dax to bring you free vodka and a screening of Ryan Trecartin’s P.opular S.ky (section ish); this year I bring you free vodka and CHARLES FUCKING ATLAS.  That’s right! Charles Atlas, pioneer in the development of media-dance – performance that is created directly for the camera – will be screening a selection of videos. This will be followed by performances by the likes of Regina Rocke, Shana Moulton and Nick Hallett, and none other than famed pee in the pan artist Ann Liv Young. Penny Arcade hosts, and Andrew Andrew will DJ! Happy hour starts at 9:00 pm.

Do. Not. Miss. This. Better yet, RSVP now and save $5 at the door!
