Heavenly Bodies: The Gala is Mixed Metaphors' inaugural fundraising event, at which we will be announcing our three-year partnership with QC Family Tree and the creation of The 704 Cycle, a three-year new, community-devised and led, immersive and experiential theatre series co-produced by Mixed Metaphors Productions and QC Family Tree.

We can't wait to see you at our community celebration where we will celebrate our past works, rejoice in our present, and prepare for our creative future by raising funds to support The 704 Cycle, which will disrupt the narratives of erasure in Charlotte, NC through immersive and experiential theatre. A portion of the proceeds will also go to our Building Fund which will replenish the MMP studio, which was a total loss after a car crash in 2024.
