Mother of the House

The weekly showtunes night that keeps Dupont Circle singing — a room full of people who know every word, a bartender who takes requests, and the kind of Monday reset that actually makes sense. Show up ready to belt it out or just soak in the energy of a crowd that genuinely loves this stuff.

The first Tuesday of every month brings drag bingo to Red Bear — Tiffany D Carter and guest host Frieda Poussay keeping things lively while you play for prizes. This one's fully ASL interpreted by Good Signs, making it genuinely accessible to everyone in the room.

Tuesday night at JR's blends two things the regulars actually show up for: retro music that hits different and trivia that keeps the brain sharp. It's the kind of low-key, reliably fun evening that reminds you why neighborhood bars matter — good crowd, good tunes, and the chance to prove you know your stuff.

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence bring their irreverent brand of charity to Red Bear for an evening of bingo, door prizes, and real community impact. It's the kind of night where the laughs are free, the cause is genuine, and your ticket actually goes somewhere that matters.

BUNKER's taking the temperature up with a Tyla vs Doja Cat showdown — two nights of genre-blending club heat, viral hits, amapiano grooves, and rap anthems that'll keep the dancefloor packed. DJ Alex Love's behind the decks spinning club favorites and party bangers, while Tiara Missou brings a live performance that matches the energy beat for beat. No cover, all night.

JR's Friday night drag institution — rotating performers, a packed room, and the kind of energy that's kept this show running for years. No cover means there's zero reason not to show up and see what the fuss is about.
