A Midsummer Night's Speakeasy

“And yet, to say the truth, reason and love keep little company together nowadays.” ― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

On this Summer's celebrations we look to the Bard himself for some inspiration. Our June Speakeasy is a romp, dance, and holler in honor of one of our favorite stories of love, faeries, and mistaken identity. So come costumed or come with your dance shoes and have an enchanting evening at Red Light Cafe! To see the full length of what fools these mortals be, our show will feature:

— FREE swing dance lessons at 8pm after doors open from Alyssa Jackson
— Our puckish resident DJ Doctor Q who will be sharing MC duties with the spritely Talloolah Love!
Rosie Rivet-her as our hostess and stage kitten spirit
Candi LeCoeur and Flame Cynders as our performers and dancing fey
Wolfling as our featured go go dancer
A Costume Contest: Show up in Shakespearean or Fairy attire for a chance to win tickets to next month's Secret Speakeasy and other door prizes.
— And our Titania for the evening is the Doris Day of dropping trou, our Lady of the Night, Dee Flowered!

$15 Adv – $20 Door
