A whisper from the future… a pulse from the past. We call it SUBVERSION.

On Saturday, October 5th, SUBVERSION, the final chapter of our annual Black Burlesque Trilogy begins. SUBVERSION is not only a cabaret, it’s a portal. A ritual of Afro-Surrealism and Afro-Futurism, where flesh, spirit, and the unknown unite in a lavish world of mystery and desire.

Join us in an avant garde, experimental cabaret —interactive, immersive, and unapologetically otherworldly. Will you witness the future? Or will you become it?

SUBVERSION is an avant-garde theatrical show experience that invites guests into a sanctuary of black excellence and liberation for one-night-only focused on all things Afro-Futurism and Afro-Surrealism.

SUBVERSION by Siren Pack is the final part of the annual Black Burlesque Trilogy. It features an all-Black cast (though all identities are welcome to attend) and centers on the exploration of the Black future, following the themes of ancestral homage (PRIMAL, in celebration of Black History Month) and present liberation (FREEDOM in celebration of Juneteenth) from the first two parts of the trilogy. The show is an avant-garde blend of sensuality, ritual, and performance art, offering a powerful celebration of Blackness featuring an all star ensemble: Queerly Femmetastic, Ashantidoll, Zami’Fae, MovaKween, La Deva Arazel, Switchress Shay Au Lait, DJ Gozer, Emerald Sazerac and Marvin the Professor.

While it is the 3rd part of the annual trilogy, if this is your first time attending, you will enjoy it. Each show has its own independent story with many of the same performers.
