Events

  1. LAUNCH PARTY: The Haunted Houses She Calls Her Own by Gwendolyn Kiste

    6:00 PM · The Twisted Spine

    The Twisted Spine hosting a haunted-house book launch is as on-brand as it gets, in the good sense.

  2. Anti Star Tina Aumont

    7:00 PM · Anthology Film Archives

    Anthology can make a star study feel like a secret history, and Tina Aumont is the right kind of slippery subject.

  3. FAY VICTOR - Chris Williams - Liany Mateo - Lesley Mok - Set 1

    7:30 PM · Close up

    Fay Victor with this small-band lineup at Close Up should sit closer to experiment than showroom jazz.

  4. Paper Kraine

    7:30 PM · Under St Marks Theater

    Under St Marks is still where a theater night can feel handmade without needing to apologize for it.

  5. Broadway Express + New Yorkers

    7:30 PM · Spectacle

    Spectacle putting Broadway Express next to New Yorkers is the kind of local-cinema odd pairing that rewards curiosity.

  6. Killer Queen Open Hive Night

    8:00 PM · Wonderville

    Wonderville's Open Hive night reads less like a show and more like a playable subculture check-in.

  7. The Moth Storyslam

    8:00 PM · The Bell House

    The Moth gets stranger when the crowd is Brooklyn enough to compete with the stage.

  8. CHINCHILLA feat. Elias Meister (g), Scott Colberg (b) & Jeremy Gustin (d)

    9:00 PM · Dada

    A Dada bill this specific is the sort of late-night music listing that sounds assembled by musicians, not marketers.

  9. Sorry We're Here

    9:30 PM · Caveat

    Caveat is built for shows that arrive with a title this apologetic and then refuse to behave that way.

  10. Notes From Beijing

    10:00 PM · Spectacle

    A 10 PM Spectacle slot for Notes From Beijing has the exact late-cult texture this list is meant to catch.
