Welcome to Sensual Spring! Let your queerness bloom at our April edition of Slo ‘Mo with VITIGRRL and special guest DJ Dreea on the decks. A Chicago DJ of 15 years and graduate of Scratch Academy, we are excited to welcome Dreea back to the Slo ‘Mo stage for a soulful Saturday night. Miss Angelica Grace and Empress Darling Shear will be dazzling us again as our resident dancers and Your Godmutha and Party Mom will be ready to welcome you.

This month we are called to support our comrades at the South Side house music venue The Post Chicago to help raise money to reopen this vital institution. Five percent of Slo ‘Mo’s ticket profits will be given to their GoFundMe, which is raising money for renovations & any additional licensing the city is requiring of the Post to keep the establishment running. From legacy DJs like Theo Parrish and Ron Trent to newcomers like Erica Kane and CtrlZora, we are so grateful for the work Sheldon and everyone is doing at The Post.
