Valentine Black Hearts

It’s that time of year! Time to call it quits with gooey, traditional Valentine’s plans and spend the night right with some quality love purging and splurging! It’s The Poetry Brothel Los Angeles! Come alone, in pairs, with your fellow black hearts, or your current crush while we cast some sexy hexes on all of our exes (in best fun and games!). We’ll perform a smoldering seance to conjure past loves, sing new Saint Valentine’s Day hymns (to a pig), and raise glass and good cheer to that elusive, vexing, blessed creature, amour. 

Start your Happy (Hoary)Valentine’s weekend in the deep delicious dark with favourite Performance Art, Poetry, and Prose-elites — the heartbreaking Terence Le Clere as Jacques Used (she’s coming home!), Ryan Leslie Fisher as Dark Dandy (oink), West Coast poet hostess Linda Ravenswood as Ach, Suzette (sacred fool), and Madam Noir herself Madam Tallula (preggerz)! Break up with your traditional Valentine’s plans and spend it with the Los Angeles Poetry Brothel!
