Mid-June: Cut Paste Corset Perfect premieres

Fasten that corset, tip that top-hat, and make love like it's 1865 at Stolen Chair's Victorian Valentine Party. Come in costume or come as you are, enjoy Victorian-themed drink specials, Victorian tarot readings, a silent auction, Victorian Erotica madlibs, and more!

$10 cover*, with all proceeds supporting Stolen Chair's 14th original work, Cut Paste Corset Perfect, freely inspired by the curious art of Victorian photocollage.

"Stolen Chair 'embodies Off-Off Broadway's fundamental ooh and aah," says AOL's Leonard Jacobs."

NYtheatre.com raves that Stage Kiss is "Racy... energetic...inspired...so much fun! A great play to bring a date to..." So bring your date and come drink our free wine as Stage Kiss rolls into week two, with a special Valentine's matinee on Sunday, Feb 13 (2pm).

In Stage Kiss, two young virgins independently decide to escape their town's annual virgin sacrifice by donning drag and taking to the woods where the two newly butched "boys" fall deeply in lust. With a little help from a drunken Venus eager for some boy-on-boy action, the two newly gender- questioning protagonists learn that love is a many gendered thing.

"Kiran Rikhye's gorgeous play Kinderspiel had me completely, utterly hooked. Stolen Chair pulls out a dangerously delightful production with this one that I'm so glad I didn't miss"

Read the full review at NYTheatre.com...

Kinderspiel tells the totally fabricated true story of a scandalous Weimar-era club where adults play like children...and customers pay to watch! In Berlin's seedy and seditious demimonde, five lost souls find each other (and sold-out audiences) when their curious fetish inspires a revolutionary movement.

Remember transforming your family's old refrigerator box into a dungeon?

We've had such a great time "kinderspieling" that we want to invite everyone we know to come join us for a playdate. We've got loads of free wine and a stage filled with fun objects, and we invite you to get drunk and playwith us. Or skip the drinks and just play with us. Or skip the playing and drink all you want while you watch other people play with us. Or sit in a corner and play by yourself while knowing that there are people drinking and watching you play.

$10 gets you the open wine bar and about two hours to recapture your youth in the company of friends and complete strangers.
