Mia Pixley presents: SHADOW PLAY

Through songs and stories, we’ll make space for the feelings and questions you’ve been saving (or maybe repressing altogether). Anything you’ve been tempted to write off as self-indulgent, heavy, or too much - we are here for it. Because who doesn’t love a little existential dread with their evening entertainment?

Here’s your chance to grapple with stuff, like:

• Why do I feel like I’m constantly spiraling?
• Is this a breakthrough or just a lapse in self-awareness?
• How do I have a spiritual awakening without compromising my Instagram aesthetic?

And don’t worry, you won’t be navigating this shadowy funhouse alone. Musical artists Mia Pixley, Claire Calderón (Coraza) and Nikbo will take turns sharing songs and stories via the night's "Song Tarot" deck, exploring the theme: CONTACT. What is it? What does it feel like? Why do we crave it? When do we push it away? And when are we just “meh”?

Don’t miss this night of introspection, shared experience, and maybe even a few uncomfortable truths. After all, if we’re going to wrestle with the dark stuff, we might as well do it together—and with a vibey soundtrack.
