Death Cabaret: A Benefit For Angel Action Atlanta

The first annual Death Cabaret is a benefit for Angel Action Atlanta's Your Legacy project, and the group into a 501(c)3. For over a decade, Angel Action Atlanta has stood as a symbol of compassion against queer-phobia. Now, they are reaching out into their community to assist with their dying and death care, specifically focusing on transgender folx during and post incarceration, with the goal of becoming the queer centric Planned Parenthood of dying and death care. Tonight, local artists will tell their personal stories through their works: music, spoken word, burlesque, dance... After the intermission, there will be an open discussion with the artists and audience on their performances, digging into the stages of grief and their understandings of death.

Our community partners in the Death Positive Movement will be joining us with small information tables.  We will also have a facilitator on site if anyone needs a safe space during the show, this includes the artists.

VIP tickets are limited and include near-stage seats and more!
