Abuela’s Party
About this Event
Abuela cordially invites you to her party. Let’s just say… she didn’t spend all these years being alive just to not know how to throw down . Come down to The Understudy and come shake some a$$ with Chicago's very own DJ miamor as we raise money for Kidany Camilo’s play, Abuela’s Follies, which is a part of Red Orchid Theatre's Incubator Series running from August 10 - 23.
There will be music, there will be a raffle, hot ppl, and there will absolutely be coquito. This isn’t your normal Abuela: so you better dress up right.
She wants to see you wear your best Boricua Baddie or Bad Bunny Halftime inspired attire. Scroll down for some inspo.
Tickets are $15 in advance, $25 at the door - so get them ASAP! 100% of the proceeds will be going towards the production of Abuela's Follies.
This event is 21+
See you there~
