At WERK, we want to hear your stories of the grind, of hustling in heels, or healing after the hustle. How has your queerness inspired you to innovate for the life you want? Tell us about the people that made you, the places that broke you, or the things that helped you get the job done. We’re clocked in and ready to hear your tales!
What are SLOTH events?
The SLOTH is our queer gathering for friends to share stories inspired by our selected themes. Come to listen or come to tell. We welcome authentic and true(ish) tales, comedy, poetry, music, and any creative form you can put into a compelling 5-minute share. Follow us @sloth.nyc

Join us for an incredible line up of performers as we gather to raise funds for the production of our play "A Bright Room Called Day" by Tony Kushner, opening this October.
A little about the play:
This story about a group of Berliners as the Nazis accumulate more and more political power in Germany is almost painfully relevant to what we’re all moving through right now with the current administration. We’re hoping to create a safe space for audience and actors to sit with their feelings, fears, confusion, questions, impulses towards leaving, impulses towards staying, and the intense and messy constellation that exists around what it means to be a citizen of our country right now during the rise of fascism.
A little about the fundraiser:
Hosted by co-producers Rebecca Friday and Jake Lasser aka Portal Rose and Director Rachel Karp
Performances by:
A sneak peek from the cast
and More!
Plus special raffle prizes!
All to help us pay our actors, creative crew, and licensing rights to mount this very important performance.

Early Bird $10 / Advance $12 / Door $15
Claire Nichols live for the very last time, featuring friends Gatorkitty and Angus Wayne. Claire Nichols is a bitch! But at least she’s embarrassed about it. (listen to “the dog song,” it’s good.) With a catalog that dates back to 2021, the Denver-born artist and songwriter serves a sucker punch of pop prowess on a platter of biting lyrics. Nichols finds a through line in the disparate using her distinctive poetic candor and glitchy electronic soundscapes.
