Who’s making this month’s Nightcap gloriously unstable? Meet the lineup for FRIGID Nightcap: STARS & STRIPS — a late-night downtown variety show about peeling back the patriotic fantasy and imagining something stranger, sharper, and better underneath it. This month’s weirdos: 🇺🇸 EDGAR / @edgar_allcaps Flag code desecration in drag 🎤 Vienna Tango / @vienna_tango A national anthem turned inside out ⚖️ Pan de Lune / @pan_de_lune A Supreme Court fever dream 💋 The Strange Girlzz / @strangegirlzz American lovability, but make it weird 📍 Under St. Marks 📅 Friday, April 24 🕥 10:30pm 🎟️ [Link in bio] Swipe through, pick your poison, and come see what happens when all of these energies collide in one room. #FRIGIDNightcap #StarsAndStrips #NYCVarietyShow #UnderStMarks #EastVillageNightlife

🌟🇺🇸 GUEST SPOTLIGHT: EDGAR 🇺🇸🌟 Please welcome @edgar_allcaps to FRIGID Nightcap: STARS & STRIPS. EDGAR is bringing F*ck the Flag Code — a drag performance that takes patriotism, national ritual, and American flag etiquette and gives them the exact amount of reverence they deserve: none. Beginning with a failed lip sync of the National Anthem and spiraling outward from there, this act wrestles the flag out of the realm of sacred object and into something far messier, campier, and more fun to watch get knocked off its pedestal. Desecration, spectacle, irreverence, and a little Divine? Sounds like exactly the right energy for STARS & STRIPS. 📍 Under St. Marks 📅 Friday, April 24 🕥 10:30pm 🎟️ [Link in bio] Follow: @edgar_allcaps #FRIGIDNightcap #StarsAndStrips #GuestSpotlight #NYCDrag #UnderStMarks

🚨🇺🇸✨ LINEUP ANNOUNCEMENT: FRIGID NIGHTCAP — STARS & STRIPS ✨🇺🇸🚨 The fantasy is officially fully dressed down. On Friday, April 24 at 10:30pm, FRIGID Nightcap returns to Under St. Marks with a lineup built to peel back the patriotic costume, expose the machinery, and make a glorious mess of the American myth. This month’s STARS & STRIPS lineup features: 💋 EDGAR / @edgar_allcaps A disgraced rodeo clown takes on patriotism, flag etiquette, and national ritual with satire, irreverence, and unapologetic camp. 🎤 Vienna Tango / @vienna_tango A haunting a cappella National Anthem meets the brutal underside of American history in a performance that starts in pageantry and turns somewhere much darker. ⚖️ Pan de Lune / @pan_de_lune Part drag king, part punk jester, part judicial nightmare: Pan serves up a gleefully twisted riff on law, power, gender, and the clown show of American justice. 💥 The Strange Girlzz / @strangegirlzz Our resident chaos agents return, as they should, with another left turn into glamour, weirdness, and high-voltage unpredictability. This is a true variety show in the deepest sense: drag, live vocal performance, political satire, camp, spectacle, and the beautiful downtown chaos Nightcap does best. FRIGID Nightcap: STARS & STRIPS Undressing the American Myth 📍 Under St. Marks 📅 Friday, April 24 🕥 10:30pm 🎟️ [Link in bio] Come late. Stay weird. Imagine a better nation. #FRIGIDNightcap #StarsAndStrips #UnderStMarks #EastVillageNightlife #NYCVarietyShow
