Diana Oh's THE INFINITE LOVE PARTY Begins this Weekend

The Bushwick Starr presents The Infinite Love Party, an intentional barefoot potluck dinner party, dance party, and sleepover by award-winning actor / singer-songwriter / theatremaker / performing artist Diana Oh ({my lingerie play} at Rattlestick Playwrights Theater) and co-creative director Kevin Hourigan (Imagine: Yemen at the Pershing Square Signature Center). This new creation heralds the next level of Diana's trademark "glitter bomb [of] a friendly, feel-good celebration of human beings sharing a space where it's safe for them to be themselves."- New York Times. This is not a play-it's an experience. The Infinite Love Party is where love is forged. A celebration of soul awakening. It's where play breeds change. It's where queer magic can do its healing. For All People. A celebration of the outskirts. A celebration of Queerness and our Allies. A celebration of POC and our Allies. A space for bare humanity to exist- where we will leave kinder and more open, more connected to our purpose, our bodies, and our hearts. A celebration of liberated selves. A celebration of liberated love. AN INFINITE LOVE PARTY!
