Nick Eibler/Lavender Public are thrilled to have the second show of their Pride Month edition of Queer To Tell: a Storytelling Series at Ginger's Bar in Park Slope. The show is will be hosted by ... and feature 5 different LGBTQIA+ storytellers telling different tales in accordance with the evening's theme. The show will run about an hour and a half.


This week's theme - "SAPPHIC STORIES": "Sapphic," in contemporary usage, refers to femmes attracted to other femmes whether they identify as lesbian, bisexual, queer, trans, masc, or any diverse identity falling within the spectrum of same-sex attractions. These stories range from coming out ones, to "ring of keys" moments, to love stories, to moments of gender euphoria, to the meeting of a mentor, to finding chosen family.

Seating begins at 7:15. Show starts at 8:00.

THE BAR IS CASH ONLY


ABOUT THE SERIES:

Queer To Tell is a NYC born national storytelling series that features LGBTQIA+ storytellers, is hosted by a local drag/queer performance artist, and takes place at Queer-owned/affirming spaces across the country. The series takes place in non-traditional performance spaces to create a space that feels like an intimate gathering audiences are happening upon rather than a theatrical performance. Each show has a different theme that allows for storytellers to share the universal experiences we as a community share but also the nuances of our different identities. This series was established to document the myriad of stories that exist within the LGBTQIA+ community, facilitate and encourage community building, and claim space in places that are actively celebrating and protecting us.
