    Event description

    Queer Dance Freakout is an interactive choose-your-own-adventure-spectacle, inspired by the Neo-Futurists Infinite Wrench. Our company is composed of queer, trans, and/or nonbinary artists & storytellers, who perform an array of devised performance art pieces. We aim to have audiences booty shaking, grooving, and connecting with the larger queer community.

    Each of our original pieces are around 1 minute in length, and the audience queues the order of these pieces from our “playlist” by verbally calling out the next piece they want to see. Queer Dance Freakout is ever changing; every piece and performance the company writes and choreographs is created from our own life experiences! No Freakout performance is the same, as we devise new work every season (and repeat some of our favorites). We can't wait to freakout with you! 

    Unfortunately, this venue is not ADA accessible as it is up a large flight of stairs (20+ stairs). Seating is first come first served. If you are unable to stand for the length of the performance (60 minutes), please make note of this in your ticket order and we will happily reserve a seat for you. 

    Our tickets are sliding scale for accessibility. If you are unable to pay the base price, we offer a discount code for low-income individuals and members of the BIPOC or TGNC community. Please email genderphucked@gmail.com the level of assistance you need and we will happily accommodate. 

    Content Disclosure: Queer Dance Freakout is recommended for ages 16 and up. This performance will include the following sensitive material:

    • Displays of sensuality
    • Mentions of sexually explicit acts
    • Use of profane language (by dancers and in music), LGBTQ slurs (by dancers and in music), and racial slurs (in music only)
    • Sensory experiences: shouting, loud music, possible screams, flashing lights, dancers dancing within three feet of the front row, & audience participation only with explicit consent


    The company encourages all audience members to take care of themselves however they may need to–including exiting the space, saying no to participating in interactive numbers, getting up to stretch or use the restroom, etc. Please reach out to co-intimacy directors Kat Phillips (katphillips1998@gmail.com) and Bianca Thompson (biancalegardathompson@gmail.com) with any further questions regarding charged content in the show.
