Nervous Laughter: A Comedy Show

Dorothy's queer karaoke night is back with a second monthly installment. Hosted by E, the third Friday of every month brings four hours of singing, starting at 10pm and running til 2am. Doors open at 6pm, sign-ups kick off at 9pm, and there's no cover charge to get in. Whether you're belting out your anthem or cheering from the crowd, it's the kind of night that reminds you why karaoke in a room full of queers just hits different.

Love Marie takes over Dorothy's decks for a late-night set that'll keep the dance floor moving until close. The Chicago-based DJ knows how to read a room and build a night — expect the kind of sound that makes you forget what time it is. 9pm to 1am.

Dorothy's newest summer dance party leans into pure pop energy — the kind of night where the dance floor gets packed and everyone's singing along to the hits. Music, performances, and a room full of people ready to have a good time in the subterranean heart of West Town.

Find your people in a room full of them. Masala Dykes brings together queer and sapphic South Asian folks for an evening of community, connection, and conversation in Dorothy's intimate underground space. Whether you're looking to meet others who get both sides of your identity or just want to be around folks who speak your language—literally and culturally—this is the gathering for you.

Third Monday of every month, Shelli Nicole hosts a screening of the queer films that defined a generation — the ones you watched with friends, quoted endlessly, and still think about. Stick around after for prizes and the kind of conversation that only happens when you're all nostalgic for the same movie.

Adrianne Blanks is celebrating her birthday with a night of live music and performances in Dorothy's intimate underground space. Come catch her and friends in this special evening at the West Town lesbian bar.
