Hello darlings,
We come to you with ragged breath, FRESH from screaming “FUUUUUUUUUCK” into a pillow. Ok, now that you know THAT let’s talk about literally anything else.
TONIGHT! We are putting on a show in remembrance of DAVID LYNCH, hosted by Lynchian sweetheart, ERIC EDELSTIEN. We’re already fully booked for this (a reminder for attendees, it’s first come first served!) Can’t make it? Join the FREE LIVESTREAM of the event! We’re grateful to have this space that can hold events for celebration and healing. Not that we’re going to (cough) need that… constantly… for the next four (🤞) years. Hold on one sec gotta scream into the pillow again. We will have special guest CAREL STRUYCKEN (Lurch! The Giant) with us. Carel recently lost his home in the Eaton Fires. Support him directly here!
(Inhale. Exhale. Rapidly blink. Dissociate. Annnnnd:) Speaking of an event for healing! THIS Saturday is our epic Dynasty Tonight! benefit for those directly affected by the Los Angeles wildfires. LIVE AND LIVE-STREAMED, so you can support literally ANYWHERE! All proceeds go to the cause. And you’ll have a week to watch the stream, so if you’re worried about staying up late… don’t! Why not get all dolled up for this?! We’re going to. In addition to being just so grateful for the lineup (REGGIE WATTS, ATSUKO OKATSUKA, CRAIG ROBINSON, ANDREW MICHAAN, EVANGELINE, VULFMON, BOB BAKER MARIONETTES!) we’re also THRILLED to use this as the inaugural show on our NEW platform: Dynasty.tv. This platform has been a lonnnng time in the making (thank you team! Head of Production Sam, Designer Dan, and sweet Lang) and we’re so proud of how it came out. It’s an upgrade in every way, and we hope you love your viewing experience! Let this be the first of many. ❤️
 We have a ton of great programming coming up, but before we get to that we’d like to offer you all the opportunity to support some of our darlings who’ve lost everything in the fires:
♥️ Sweet Chris and Rachel, who we had the great privilege of surprise marrying on a Dynasty Tonight! show a couple months ago.
♥️ Nate, who wrote us OUR VERY OWN crossword, and his husband lost their home.
♥️ Eric and Judy lost their home, and Judy wrote a beautiful essay about their loss.
🤲 Dynasty Darling Daniel works for a company giving free mental health services to anyone affected by the wild fires. Here’s the info!
We love you,
VanJam

🛳️ 🧊 WEDNESDAY, 1/22, 7:30PM: Never Let Go!
🚨LOW TICKET WARNING🚨
NEVER LET GO is a “feat of ingenuity” (NY Times). This uproariously queer one-man show takes you back to the Ship of Dreams. It distills the three-plus hour epic and packs into one hour a surprisingly subversive punch. KINNAN, who grew up worshiping the movie and its iconic cast of characters, plays all of them with “perfectly executed comedy, pathos and homage” (ScotsGay Arts). As told by ROSE, the play takes you on an intimate journey into the fateful romance that is shadowed by one of the most devastating man-made disasters of modern history – the sinking of the Titanic. NEVER LET GO is “a truly unique and absorbing high camp theatrical piece” (Culture Fix).
💕 🗑️ THURSDAY, 1/23, 7:30PM: Lovett Or Leave It
LOVETT OR LEAVE IT is a live variety show and podcast that breaks down the week’s politics and pop culture news with sketches, games, jokes that literally never miss, and everyone’s favorite: nuanced analysis.

Featuring KATHY GRIFFIN

This screening is rated GG for GUANOGUANO! GuanoGuano means: gettin’ real weird and having fun and quoting or howling or whatever. Rambunctious does not mean barfing.

🚗 💨 SUNDAY, 1/26, 7:30PM: The Fast and the Furious: A Musical Parody
🚨LOW TICKET WARNING🚨
After a sold-out pre-pandemic run, LA’s boldest, baldest musical is back with a vengeance and a revamped second act. New songs! New dances! Same dumb premise!
Come watch your favorite car-driving gang members battle their greatest foe yet – singing and dancing at the same time.
In this unauthorized parody that is in no way connected to the very profitable Universal property, DOMINIC TORETTO and his team (THE ROCK, TYRESE, MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ, and LUDACRIS) do what they do best: commit crimes. And what they do second best: solve crimes. And what they do third best: harmonize.
Join DOMINIC on an existential journey inward where he confronts life’s hard questions: What does it mean to be a good person? Does the rightness or wrongness of an action depend on its consequence, or whether it fulfills the categorical imperative? Why can’t you marry a car?
With all original music and a new twist on the story, this part parody/part love letter to THE BEST MOVIE FRANCHISE EVER is for both fans of the series and people who've never heard VIN DIESEL say "family."
If you want to watch one of the films to prepare, we suggest ALL OF THEM but actually the 8th movie, The Fate of the Furious.
🚫 🖼️ TUESDAY, 1/28, 7:30PM: Not An Artist - Live Digital Premiere and Q+A!

MATT WALSH
