Deviants and weirdos welcome, AI and bigots begone.
Red eyes glance along the bridges, a skittering is heard along the cobblestones, and a single moist tentacle reaches up out of the water to accept a glass of wine. Creatures that wander the line between adorable and threatening intertwine with horrors that barely rival reality. Sharpen your teeth and pack your local void into a carry-on, and join us for a lovely evening cuddling up with all manner of…beings.
Two nights only. 12 performers each night. In addition to the show, enjoy monstrous drink specials (alcoholic and non alcoholic) and light snacks available from our hosts The Stage Austin.
