Nuit Blanche at Buddies in Bad Times

"We might live in bad times but the nights are bright and full of longing," says ted witzel, Artistic Director. "We're packing our building with a whole night of experiences that bridge distances between bodies, spaces, and eras, right at the edge of art and sweaty party.

Intersecting and overlapping projects take over the theatre's historic building to echo the makeouts and sweat stains of years of parties and performances. Enjoy a taste of the queer underground in Tallulah's Cabaret with performances created by FakeKnot and DJ Karim Olen Ash, a hot new video installation, Sex is Sex, by Vivek Shraya and Christopher Sherman, and a performance-infused graffiti party in the Buddies basement, hosted by drag/pop duo xLq, and a bevy of collaborators. Leave a love letter to your missed connection in Buddies' glittering bathrooms before you crawl home. You won't sleep a wink (but if you did, this is the party you'd dream of). Learn more at BuddiesinBadTimes.com or at Toronto.ca."
