Rabbit Hole Party

THE COUNTDOWN TO PARTY DAY IS ONLY 4 DAYS!!!
And to give you all something to chew on till then, it is time for the MOODBOARD!

For this party, we are celebrating Pride in the best way Wonderland knows how - with a mad tea party~ The big three things to keep in mind for this theme is Maximalism, Colors, and Hats. Layer different patterns, wear that bright color you've been nervous to wear out, and wear whatever hat makes you feel the most puss. This could be a huge top hat, a flower crown, a fascinator, or even a wig. Whatever feels right to you.

We're all mad here, so don't hold back!

"The Dormouse had closed its eyes by this time, and was going off into a doze; but, on being pinched by the Hatter, it woke up again with a little shriek, and went on: “—that begins with an M, such as mouse-traps, and the moon, and memory, and muchness—you know you say things are “much of a muchness”—did you ever see such a thing as a drawing of a muchness?”

“Really, now you ask me,” said Alice, very much confused, “I don’t think—”
“Then you shouldn’t talk,” said the Hatter..."

We are 6 DAYS AWAY BABY and this rabbit has already been checking their pocketwatch, making sure that everything is ready for the big day.
To usher in Pride Week, it's time to finally introduce our other honored guest to our Pride tea party. Welcome out the icon of the Alternative drag scene of Rochester, Chintz McMahon. You may have seen him hosting his drag show, Plot Twist, at Bar Bad Ending, or even in the wrestling ring at Lux. This artist's one-of-a-kind talent has won them multiple titles, truly allowing them to carve out a space for themselves in our local drag scene.

Now I'm sure y'all are absolutely busting at the seams for the moodboard. Keep an eye out because it'll be here before you know it~

"There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. 'Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse,' thought Alice; 'only, as it’s asleep, I suppose it doesn’t mind.'"

This queen took the stage only a couple of years ago, but she has absolutely made her mark on the drag scene all over WNY. Not only has she been crowned Miss Roar 2025, but is also currently the reigning champion of Buffalo's Drag Race. Eden Alive is known for her explosive energy and her unclockable mug that is simply out of this world. If you want to see why this performer's name is on everyone's lips, then you better find yourself at this special Pride edition of Rabbit Hole!

Do you want a little hint about our next guest? They can be found on stage...and in the wrestling ring....

TODAY IS THE DAY MY LITTLE ROSEBUDS!!

Before we can get into the fun, I wanted to give a reminder of our customs here to make sure that this party is as fun and successful as possible for everyone. Our guests are already buzzing with excitement. This rabbit has been hopping around all morning to get all of the finishing touches together. And you'd better be at the edge of your seat in anticipation of what you will find tonight down the rabbit hole.

"...However, there was the hill full in sight, so there was nothing to be done but start again. This time she came upon a large flower-bed, with a border of daisies, and a willow-tree growing in the middle.
‘O Tiger-lily,’ said Alice, addressing herself to one that was waving gracefully about in the wind, ‘I wish you could talk!’
‘We can talk,’ said the Tiger-lily: ‘when there’s anybody worth talking to.’
Alice was so astonished that she could not speak for a minute: it quite seemed to take her breath away. At length, as the Tiger-lily only went on waving about, she spoke again, in a timid voice—almost in a whisper. ‘And can all the flowers talk?’
‘As well as you can,’ said the Tiger-lily. ‘And a great deal louder.’"

THE MOODBOARD IS OFFICIALLY BLOOMING!

This time around, the goal is to be those fabulous flowers that kikied in the gardens of Wonderland. In honor of our own flower-themed lilac festival here in Rochester, I want you to find a flower (or a couple of flowers) that you love and create a look inspired by it. Take it literally or as abstract as you'd like. Take it as extravagant or as casual as you'd like. Just follow wherever your inspiration takes you. But most importantly, dress in whatever way makes you feel your best.

I cannot wait to see the garden of colorful flowers swaying their petals on the dancefloor.

"...It did so indeed, and much sooner than she had expected: before she had drunk half the bottle, she found her head pressing against the ceiling, and had to stoop to save her neck from being broken. She hastily put down the bottle, saying to herself, 'That’s quite enough—I hope I shan’t grow any more—As it is, I can’t get out at the door—I do wish I hadn’t drunk quite so much!'..."

WE ARE SIX DAYS AWAY, AND I AM JUST BOUNCING WITH EXCITEMENT. How about you?

To give you a little nibble as we get closer to party day, today you'll get to learn more about our other stunning entertainer for the night. Allow me to introduce you to Tessa TrueHeart. Hailing from Binghamton, NY, Tessa has created one of the premier places for learning about the craft of burlesque, Bees Knees Burlesque Academy. When she's not inspiring people in class, she is making the crowd roar with her slow-burning sensuality on stage.

If you want to see every one of her bumps and grinds, then you'd better find yourself at Rabbit Hole this weekend. Moodboard will be dropping tomorrow~

"...By this time she had found her way into a tidy little room with a table in the window, and on it (as she had hoped) a fan and two or three pairs of tiny white kid gloves: she took up the fan and a pair of the gloves, and was just going to leave the room, when her eye fell upon a little bottle that stood near the looking-glass. There was no label this time with the words “DRINK ME,” but nevertheless she uncorked it and put it to her lips. “I know something interesting is sure to happen,” she said to herself, “whenever I eat or drink anything; so I’ll just see what this bottle does..."

WE ARE LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AWAY FROM PARTY DAY!!

Have you been missing Wonderland yet? Because this rabbit has missed you all. While you've been away, I've been working hard to deliver an even better experience than last time, and that starts with our iconic guests. Today's introduction is about one of Rochester's newest crowning jewels, Victoria Dupree. She brings a fresh, vibrant energy to the stage, with soul and depth no one else has. She's able to blow the dust off the old school tracks and bring them new life. You may have seen her gracing the stages of Roar Night Club, hosting Karaoke every Wednesday. Or you may have seen her twirling in Syracuse, NY, at Song & Dance in the show Iconica. But now it's your turn to experience her magic.

Y'all showed OUT with your outfits last month and I am beyond excited to see the looks you bring out this time. Keep your eyes out for our next performer introduction and the release of this month's moodboard. Here's some inspiration for now....nature is calling~

TODAY IS THE DAY!!

As everyone is preparing for tonight, please make sure to take the time to read the Customs of Wonderland. This will just give a little breakdown on the best practices to make this party the most fun it can be.

Creating a party that truly is safe for everyone and values not just white gay men is incredibly important to me.

I'll see you all down the rabbit hole in a couple of hours~
