Paris is Burning

The Weekend Starts Here.

Join us at the ICA late-night every Friday for special screenings of this sweet, soulful, life-affirming classic documentary that immerses the viewer in the world of 'drag balls' - a vibrant New York demimonde that thrived at the end of the '80s and, most famously, inspired Madonna's 'Vogue'. The troupe of dreamers and outsiders who star in this legendary film are the most complex and colourful characters you'll see on-screen all year, and director Jennie Livingstone captures all their rituals, rivalries and routines. A fabulous film to watch with a fabulous audience, so don't miss out on a perfect start to the weekend.

The ICA Bar stays open until 1am following these late-night screenings.
