Psycho Sisters Murder on Ice: A Drag Queen Murder Mystery Party
Come out and enjoy a drag show full of fun performances, food, drinks, and, of course, KILLER queens. With a new year comes a new kill and we are going to need YOUR help to figure out exactly what happened. Come join some wonderful queens for their getaway cabin retreat in the woods where we can party, chat, and, of course, slay. Psycho Sisters is an interactive drag murder mystery show, so get ready to be immersed into a beautifully twisted experience for a night you’ll never forget. That is, unless, you don’t make it out alive ;). 2023 is already freezing, but it’s about to get icy. See you soon…

Find out more »Scribes on South
SCRIBES ON SOUTH is a poetry reading and open mic. The reading begins with a 20-minute featured reader and then moves through the open mic list for the rest of the night. Open mic readers have 5 minutes. There will be a space for poets to sell books.
SCRIBES ON SOUTH seeks to create community through poetry. Show out, share, and meet some new friends by sharing your work!
There is no theme; the only theme is poems. Good poems, bad poems, boring poems, fiery poems. The only rule is no snapping (it’s distracting to the readers).
The reading is hosted by Noah David Roberts.
This reading’s featured reader is Damian Rucci, an eclectic bombast working-class hero poet from Jersey.
Read poems. Kick ass.
