WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Tickets available through November 2nd.
Two national treasures unleash their epic imaginations to conjure a modern and intimate fantasy. Basil Twist's signature magic envelopes Joey Arias' legendary voice, transporting us to unpredictable worlds, channeling ecstatic desires, lavish nightmares and bizarre premonitions in a bejeweled cabinet of curiosities that could only be found in one of downtown's last enclaves for bohemian New York style. Playfully intended for mature audiences, not for children.

Arias With a Twist is a trippy, mesmerizing visual feast. This collaboration between renowned drag diva Joey Arias and visionary puppet artist Basil Twist -- currently playing HERE Arts Center -- is full of imagery that is saucy, clever, and oftentimes simply stunning.
The very loose narrative that the show follows has Arias abducted and probed by aliens, then dumped in a verdant jungle where she eats a mushroom that sends her on a psychedelic journey.
