Hello lovelies,

February is just around the corner, and our month's plans range from the darkly decadent to sweetly romantic. We're also pondering a pre-VDay market...what do you think?

- Thur 1.18 - Guest event: Dance at Dusk Fusion Dance monthly.

- Fri 1.26 - Dark DecaDance - New Year's weekend goth dance & kink play bash was such a hit that we are taking this sensuous party monthly, on every fourth Friday. It's also officially moving to our sexier sister site, House of Scorpio, so we can provide more play room, more safe space, and generally a more private atmosphere. HoS is a consent-forward all-gender all-orientation membership clubhouse. Signup is quick and easy, with no multi-month commitment, and memberships starts at just $5, while full benefits kick in at the $15 level. HoS does 5-7 events per month, so once you're a member, you can check out mixers, movies, makeout parties, and more. Start at http://www.houseofscorpio.com & we will see you at all those *other* events you've likely heard about.

- Sat 2.10 - Meet Me in Paris - step back in time to turn-of-century Paris in our annual Valentine's cabaret bash. Live music, live performance, cozy seating, swingin' dance floor, killer cocktails. Best date night in town at about half the price of a boring restaurant.

- Wed 2.14 - Dance Hall of Languid Delight - inspired by the dance halls of the early twentieth century and slow dancing from junior high school, The Dance Hall is an evening filled with tantalizing restraint. Fill your dance card (yes, really), and slow dance all night with rotating partners. With our dance matrons sweeping the dance floor, nobody will be left a wallflower. Plenty of room for dressing up and romance, but an inclusive and sweet night for those flying solo.

Cheers,

Gemini & Scorpio,
makers of themed costume events with live entertainment

Fusion Dance is a magnificent blend of styles forming a fluid improvisational partner dance. Whether you're a seasoned dancer or a newbie looking to learn how to move your feet, this style is inclusive for all because of its diverse nature. We kick off each event with an introductory dance lesson focusing on basics of the dance style, followed by a consent talk. Afterwards, let loose on the open dance floor as our talented rotating cast of DJs send us through the night.

Our teacher this month: special guest from Philly Emiliano Estevez will be teaching some technical foundational and advanced techniques in connection and dance, including: managing your gravity and center of mass, turns, communication in leading and following, and more. We have two guest DJs this month: Emiliano Estevez (a.k.a DJ DarkStar) and Nell M-Kay.

This event is specifically inclusive of all genders, orientations and ethnic backgrounds. Whoever you are, dress to express yourself and dance the night away. Solo folks welcome, as traditionally dance partners will rotate through the night.

Dance at Dusk happens monthly on every third Thursday. For questions and further info, contact Foxie Lou (Mxfoxielou) or Gavin (Gav.a.good.time) on IG.

Inspired by the dance halls of the early twentieth century and slow dancing from junior high school, The Dance Hall is an evening filled with tantalizing restraint. The esteemed DJ James Mulry delivers eclectic slow dances all night via vinyl record. Hosted by the illustrious Kate Brehm.  

Participants are given dance cards to arrange partnered prances in the opening half hour and dance set breaks. Get social in our jungle-themed bar with fun cocktails & mocktails, and arrange your dances for the night. You don't need a partner or dance skills to participate: a slow dance lesson begins the evening, and any wallflowers are matched up by roving dance matrons (note: gender is irrelevant for partner dancing).

Dress as your most magnificent self (gender irrelevant for fabulous dress, as well). Selfie photo booth set up to capture your looks.

Arrive on time to start filling your dance card. Dance lesson and evening instructions at 7:30pm. Three dance card music sets begin at 7:45pm & end at 10:30pm, with intermissions between sets. Slow dance music in intermissions and after for open dancing.

*All tickets offer the same access to the event. Please buy at the highest price you can, to support artists, production and affordable tickets for everyone. For every patron ticket ($40) we add a low income ticket ($15).
