Welcome to BODYHAUS: a strip club night, for queers by queers!An evening of erotic art &amp; live performances that is a safe and inclusive space. Our goal is to raise awareness of the fact that strip clubs do not pay their dancers an hourly wage, and we want to do this by hosting a night where we pay them a base fee, on top of whatever tips they earn on the night. You will receive 10 tipping dollars with your ticket, and can purchase more at the venue. Please tip the dancers and show your appreciation!We also want to de-stigmatise this important line of work, and redefine what sensuality looks like by putting on a beautiful, artful, sex positive night.But most importantly, we want to create a safe space for trans &amp; gender diverse dancers, who often don't feel safe enough to perform elsewhere. We want to create change by celebrating all bodies and by making this experience accessible to queer patrons who may not otherwise feel comfortable in a traditional strip club.This space is for those who have always wanted to embrace their erotic side and go to a strip club, but didn't feel like that space was for them. This is a place for queer performers, and queer patrons to come together.Our little team of passionate sex positive queers are the right people to do this because we have had personal experiences with how mainstream strip clubs work, and we want to do better! We want to dismantle the heteronormative gaze that usually occupies strip clubs and replace it with our own queer as f*ck lens.EVENT:9pm - Doors open, performance art begins10pm-12am - Stage performances 12am onwards - Performance art and DJ into the night!****************RULES*****************NO filming or photographyNo touching the dancers and artistsWhen tipping place your tip notes where the dancer instructs you or else put them directly on the stageThere will be no tolerance towards transphobia, homophobia, racism, sexism, slut shaming, fatphobia, sizeism, ableism, xenophobia and ageismPlease leave your clothes on and keep off the stage and dance poles. Let the strippers do the stripping as this is their show. (if you would like to strip in our next event please let us know)Respect the performers privacy and autonomy within the club; do not bad mouth the performers and do not share their personal information with othersIf you do not feel safe at any point or if you see someone who isn’t honoring this agreement please see security or one of our safer space team wearing pink hi-visWe love respect, kindness and inclusiveness and remember that real compassion is also being able to call your mates out on their bullshit so lets work together to create a harmonious environment for everyone!Have fun celebrating sexual and sensual expression in a safe and consensual space!Love BODYHAUS xo
