About this Event

THE GREAT BALL AT SATAN’S

A PARTY DESIGNED TO ALTER YOUR STATE.

Here’s the experiment: Can a room full of strangers get high on nothing at all?

We’re going to try.

For 90 minutes, The Great Ball at Satan’s throws you into a conducted mix of music, movement, games, food, drinks, and other human beings. Yes, you have to talk to them. Part party. Part theater. Part social experiment. No substances needed.

This is not a sit-and-watch situation. You move, you play, you participate. The whole thing is conducted by Kira Nova, who will spend 90 minutes turning a room of adults back into five-year-olds. Spiritually. Please remain legally responsible for yourself.

DRESS CODE

Formal — or dress like you’re going to your least favorite cousin’s wedding. You want to look good. You just don’t want anyone thinking you tried.

ONE THING

This is a work-in-progress for a major European commission by Lilith Performance Studio in Malmö, Sweden. The full piece premieres this November; this is its first Los Angeles test run.

Inspired by Mikhail Bulgakov’s The Master and Margarita.

CONTENT + CONSENT

The Great Ball at Satan’s is immersive theater. It contains adult themes, suggestive humor, and simulated nudity through prosthetic body parts — but there is no actual nudity and no sexual activity of any kind.

This is an interactive event, but you are never required to touch anyone or be touched. Ask before initiating physical contact. Respect a “no” immediately. You are always free to decline an invitation, sit something out, or step away. Harassment, unwanted touch, and discriminatory behavior are not welcome here.
