It’s all the flavour with none of the additives. Lunchbox Candy – Sugar Free is a chance to get high on life as we present a jam-packed evening filled with energetic house music, intimate connection, deranged performances, sexual healing, transformative workshops and oh dancing, yes there will be dancing! We’re creating a sober experience for not only those who lead a sober lifestyle or the sober curious but to all of our community for a chance to bathe in the wonders of Lunchbox Candy without consuming alcohol or any other substances. An opportunity to connect with yourself and others, naturally. To kick off the evening on the Candy Flip floor the amazing Phoenix Chase-Meares will facilitate a movement workshop ‘How To Access The Non Fearful Body’ followed by Alvin Collantes lifting our spirits higher with ‘A Dose Of Pleasure’. Participation is optional but highly recommended but please remember spaces are limited. On The Box Floor we will have music all night long with Djs Adam Munnings, Ketia, Kim Swim and Anita Drink to keep you moving and grooving. A fire lineup of inspiring hosts / performers curated by Nancy Nutter will be sure to blow your mind and keep you entertained, gooped and gagged. Expect the unexpected, after all it’s Lunchbox Candy. Our Love Room will be open for cuties who love to cruise hosted by Lesbo Pro (House Of Steel). It’s a space for all bodies, genders and sexual orientations. Let’s celebrate sexuality without the chems. Sip a mocktail, snack on some fresh fruit and trust yourself and the process cause all we’re consuming is a damn good time. Join us October 10th at Aeden Berlin for Lunchbox Candy – Sugar Free, a sober experience open to all. Doors open at 7:30pm.

“my fear of pretending” at Loftas Festival Vilnius

“My Fear of Pretending” is a deeply personal and political performance that blends original music, poetry, and physicality to explore the fluidity and multiplicity of queer identities in relation to labour, the performance of identity and authenticity and the use(full)/(less)ness of performativity. By examining the queer self as an evolving process of self-making and empowerment rather than a fixed identity, the performance traverses the intimate landscape of sexuality and extends these concepts to the socio-political realm, encompassing the body as nation and community. Mad Kate, a producer, poet, and musician, weaves her field recordings with the everyday practices of her sexuality, creating sonic tapestries that resonate with the queerness of her lived experience as sex worker, as queer feminist performer, as a parent, as an activist.
