ALOK (they/them) is an internationally acclaimed poet, comedian, public speaker, and actor. ALOK’s literary works “Beyond the Gender Binary,” “Femme in Public,” and “Your Wound, My Garden,” have garnered global recognition. Their dynamic presence has captivated audiences in over 40 countries, with sold-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Netflix is a Joke Festival. ALOK's first comedy special, “Biology,” was executive produced by Christopher Guest. They are the subject of the docu-short “ALOK,” which was executive produced by Jodie Foster, directed by Alex Hedison, and made its debut at the Sundance Film Festival in 2024. On screen, ALOK can also be seen in “Complicated Order,” “The Trans List,” and “Absolute Dominion” (forthcoming).

Also joining ALOK will be whatever mike, who crafts lush, genre-defying soundscapes that exist at the intersection of queer spirituality, emotional depth, and vocal mastery. Their music is a meditation on healing, devotion, and self-discovery—an invitation to sit with life’s paradoxes and embrace both light and shadow, movement and stillness..
Doors open at 19:00. Arrive early to grab a drink and secure the best seats.
