SPOOKY AND GAY is back to haunt Book + Bottle once more!

This is our third time hosting Bruce Costella and it's our favorite Spooky Szn Event of the year - you won't want to miss it!

If you've been to Spooky and Gay before, this is an ALL BOO (new) collection of queer horror storytelling, standup + songs performed entirely in the DARK - like Goosebumps only GAYER!

If you've never been, you don't need to have seen Volume 1 to enjoy Volume 2! These spooky stories stand alone for an evening of ghouls and guffawing.

Written + performed by award-winning, internationally touring theatermaker Bruce Ryan Costella (@BRCostella).

SPOOKY AND GAY has delighted audiences around the world since 2019, including a run Off-Broadway in 2023 as well as horror theater festivals in Portland, OR, Edinburgh, UK & Minneapolis, MN.

Bruce (he/they) is an Orlando based performing artist, producer, clown, poet and arts adminstrator. He regularly tours his original theater works independently and is always looking for an unconventional space or backyard to do a show in (maybe yours?) When home he enjoys ice cream and the company of his chihuahua, Lentilziri.

Tickets are $30 in advance and $35 at the door. There is a $20 spend minimum when you come for the event. We will start you a tab when you arrive, and you can meet that minimum by ordering wine, beer, coffee, tea, snacks OR by purchasing retail books or wine.,
