Apocalypse Noir

*Please note: This event is intended for ages 18+

Once upon a time, in a school gym in the middle of somewhere, a student became a Queen. Couples swayed awkwardly under the sea while chaperones drifted by. Wallflowers wearing corsages and boutonnieres of pansy, lavender, and violet lingered, unready or unable to join the dance floor with their intended. Some stayed home and twirled to a tape deck, sketching names and rainbow hearts in locked journals. Others danced boldly at the center of it all. The camera flashed. The clock struck midnight, and an annual rite of passage poetically ended.

Until one fairy tale night: Prom Queer at Lincoln Center.

Featuring the time machine artistry of Hovy, Garth. and his band of Cupids, along with queer performance collective Apocalypse Noir, this night is: the prom you didn’t get to have, the prom you wish could rewrite, the prom you’ll want to remember, your dreamiest slow dance in soft filters.

Dress up or down, come nostalgia, come all, under mylar—join New York’s merriest dance, darlings, where the celebration of love, pride, and becoming reigns supreme ❤.
