Saturday shows at 5:00pm and 8:00pm
Sunday shows at 3:00pm
Doors open 30 minutes ahead
www dot redrum dot live
Tickets $35 plus tax and box office fee; VIP $75 (includes complimentary cocktail, packet of clues and gift.)
Run time: Two hours
And just like that, they are back in action! Everyone's favorite gal pals from Manhattan are getting together for drinks (cosmos, obviously) and to talk about, what else, s-x. And the city. But when the ladies discover that they have one particular gentleman in common, things take a very dark and hilarious turn. It will be up to you to solve "Slay and the City" in this original immersive experience presented by Without a Cue Production, written by Traci Connaughton and held at Red Rum Theater (601 Walnut Street) from January 11th and 12th for previews, opening night on January 18th and closing on February 24th.
Manhattan's favorite gal pals are ready to spill the tea - and all the tell-all clues. Come ready to be part of the action as you try to solve the mystery. The action will happen all around you - so listen closely in between the steamy gossip and the clinking of those cosmo glasses as you try to figure out whodunit to win a prize. There will be a chance to interact with the audience, make new gal pals and even take your own mugshot. They say friendships never go out of style, but let's find out if that is true. Tickets on sale now. Theme drinks by Pops McCann - including signature cosmos, flirtinis and more - are part of the cash bar available during each performance. Come dressed as your favorite gal pal for extra bonus clues and surprises.
“Slay and the City is an original parody of one of my favorite shows," said Connaughton, who wrote the play. "It's a lampooning of S-x and the City while honoring its fandom. I have always wanted to bring this to Philadelphia for a full run. It's visually pretty because of the aspect of fashion in the show. The costumes are so fantastic. The action starts when the ladies are all out together in our version of 'Manhattan.' After a dark turn, there's a mystery to be solved and one person will leave with a prize. But everyone ends up a winner as we raise our glasses to a night out on the town with cosmos!"

Infamous Love Songs: An Over the Rhine Valentine's Concert
City Winery Philadelphia
Fashion District Philadelphia
990 Filbert St, Philadelphia, PA 19107
Wednesday, February 12, 2025
7:30 PM / 6:00 PM Doors
When you listen to Over the Rhine, the supremely talented musical couple comprised of Karin Bergquist and Linford Detweiler, you quickly fall under the spell of Karin’s timeless voice “which has the power to stop the world in its tracks” (Performing Songwriter). But then the songs start hitting you. Paste Magazine writes, “Over the Rhine creates true confessional masterpieces that know neither border nor boundary” and included Bergquist and Detweiler in their list of 100 Best Living Songwriters. Rolling Stone recently wrote, Over the Rhine is a band “with no sign of fatigue, whose moment has finally arrived.” That’s quite a sentiment for a band celebrating 30 years of writing, recording, and life on the road. But as Karin Bergquist states, “There is still so much music left to be made.” Love & Revelation, the brand new album from Over the Rhine, is a record for right now. The songs have been rigorously road tested and burst at the seams with loss, lament, and resilient hope. The LA Times writes, “The Ohio based husband and wife duo has long been making soul-nourishing music, and the richness only deepens.”

Welcome to Dis Dive, a bar off the beaten track where fairy tale creatures from all over the land come for some discreet debauchery. Servers and clientele alike use this place as an escape from their seemingly perfect and untroubled lives. Tonight, Prince Charming takes out a naïve and entirely too trusting mermaid-turned-woman in the hopes of getting lucky. Unfortunately for him, a little birdie told Cinderella where he was and what he was up too, causing the Princess to venture out and confront her cheating husband. What will become of the royal couple? Will the mermaid find her voice? What other characters and creatures will we come across? Join our crew of crass fairies and horny bears and find out during a night of laughs, drinks, and cartoon quizzo!
This performance is for adults only – we all love our kids, but we also don’t mind a night out without them once in a while! During this immersive performance in our cabaret-style theater, you will interact with familiar characters as their drama unfolds. Between scenes, you will be quizzed on your Disney-world knowledge, competing with other players for the grand prize!

Philly Love Fest - Makers Market at Love Park

Love Park Welcome Center, 1600 JFK
Presented by Now + Then Marketplace
Now + Then Marketplace presents a two-day Philly Love Fest celebration that includes Make Love Market, Valentine's Day Wedding, R&B After Dark and Valentine's Speed Dating. Now + Then is a curated market that happens 'now and then' featuring local artists, artisans, makers, and resellers in Philly. The markets are always no charge and open to the public, dog, and kid friendly. Local event producer ,Steph Irwin, started N+T Marketplace in 2021 after her time helping start Philly vintage institution Thunderbird Salvage. The community of vendors & shoppers has grown exponentially in the last 4 years, with monthly markets popping up everywhere from Fishtown to Love Park to Eakins Oval. Irwin sees the market as a way to stimulate local economy while informing the public about ecological impact of shopping second hand. Last year’s Make Love Market brought over 700 people out to the old Visitor Center at Love Park, once projected to be a restaurant, but not home to Irwin’s light install. This is the second year Make Love Market, which is one of 4 events taking place over the holiday weekend, will be at Love Park. Vendors include a local caricature artist who will be onsite to paint couples, sweet treats from NiniBsweets, self-love gifts from Not a Bad Life and type-written love poems from Mary Violet (Warped Cherub).
