can you feel it, pizzburgh?!

there’s a fresh, yet oddly familiar, feeling in the air… could it be that people are finally hopeful once more? has the spark of inspiration been communally reignited? it sure seems like folks are smiling more these days, but maybe that’s just because we can finally see your mouths again.

fist bumps are now handshakes and casual waves have morphed into hugs. complete strangers are greeting us in the streets and IRL human interaction is trending online. maybe it’s just that recent windows 95® upgrade to our altered DNA, but whatever the reason, we’re totally into this new post-pandemic version of you!

so what better way to celebrate this long-overdue blossoming than by smooshing together two of our favorite dance parties for the cross-over event of the season. we're pairing the dark, smoldering, sexiness of SECOND SKIN with that patented, effervescent, giddiness of “STRANGEWAYS” for a special one-off event that is destined to be discussed and dissected on local goth message boards for months to come.

and as if that wasn’t enough (and it is) we are thrilled to announce that this will be our very first outdoor event with FOOD! that’s right, fam - no need to drink your dinner at this party!

SOJU is the Garfield neighborhood’s favorite Korean-American eatery and they will be on-hand to serve up a special plant-based menu assembled especially for all of you lovely dancers and your dates. just make sure you show up early if you wanna eat - while the memories might last forever, the food definitely won’t.

since we’re (still) adhering to the ever-changing COVID-19 guidelines of the Allegheny County Health Department, tickets to this extravaganza are very limited! so hurry up and lock-in a few passes for you and your crew - a portion of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to the ANIMAL FRIENDS shelter in avonworth, pa.

so break out your best mascara and maybe borrow some black lipstick - we’re gonna have a blast. can’t wait to see yinz soon! xo
