Drama Club

Beauty Body Legs at Playhouse NYC every Thursday at 10:30PM, with DJ Jon Ali spinning and drag performers Venus Mystique, Ossa Noche and Moriah on stage. Playhouse is at 100 7th Avenue South in the West Village, and doors open at 2PM Thursday through Sunday.

Thursday nights at Rise Bar belong to Zetta Jones, hosting a drag-and-comedy show that thrives on unpredictability — boys, drama, looks, and laughs, with DJ Steve Sidewalk keeping the energy moving all night. Show starts at 10:30pm.

Every Thursday night at Rise, Cut Throat Karaoke turns the bar into a high-stakes sing-off hosted by Emily McNamara with DJ TK behind the decks. Singing starts at 10:30pm and the vibe is part performance, part competition — you're here to shine, and the crowd will absolutely let you know if you do. It's the kind of weekly tradition that keeps people coming back: a packed room of people who can actually sing, a host who keeps things sharp and fun, and enough adrenaline to make a Thursday night feel like an event.

RC REDD, Spencer Mackey, and Behaviorist are three NYC artists pushing pop into stranger, heavier, and queerer territory. Expect big arrangements and sharp songwriting at C'mon Everybody on Franklin Avenue in Brooklyn. Presented by C'mon Everybody, this is a 21+ event with tickets at $20.09.

Thursday nights at Industry Bar belong to Queen, the drag showcase hosted by the legendary Brenda Dharling with DJ Xavier Mazara spinning the soundtrack. A rotating cast of fierce performers—including Jada Valenciaga, Pattaya Hart, Fifi Dubois, Inita D, Chelsea Piers, and Hibiscus—bring the artistry and energy each week. Expect polished performances, a packed dance floor, and the kind of night that makes Hell's Kitchen's Industry Bar the city's most reliable queer nightlife destination.

Friday afternoon hangout for queer teens at the Q-Center — video games, board games, art supplies, and a room full of people who get it. Drop in anytime between 3 and 6pm, hang with friends old and new, no pressure to do anything but show up.
