Twisted Windows: Till Death Do Us Part
- Spire The Church 825 Athens Avenue Oakland, CA, 94607 United States (map)
Passion, elegance, and the macabre unite to celebrate life’s most sacred rituals, set against the hauntingly beautiful backdrop of a historic church re-purposed as a modern event space. Twisted Windows features our signature blend of exquisitely erotic, sensually subversive, and distinctly daring queer performance art as we take you through life’s most dramatic moments—where vows are spoken, and secrets unravel. From the lustful subcontext of a wedding to our seductive twist on mourning, each act will explore love, loss, and desire through the mediums of suspension bondage, pole dance, aerial acrobatics, and fetish artistry. The evening will also feature a delectable mocktail bar. Spire hosts worship services to elevate subculture arts and creative expression to the realm of the divine.
We recommend buying tickets in advance; standing room tickets are $50 at the door, capacity-dependant.
