SUMMARY / REVIEW:

WHAT: A Pride masquerade ball, produced by NYC’s legendary special event creator/producer, Lee Chappell, with his wunderkind wiz Chris Ryan, celebrating New York’s own bizarre brand of baroque glam.

WHY YOU SHOULD BE THERE: Because Capitale (designed by legendary architect Stanford White) with its forest of Corinthian columns is probably the single most splendid party space in Manhattan (65-foot ceilings, mosaic marble floors, Venetian glass), and because Chappell and Ryan promise a mind-boggling display of rope artists, jugglers, and visual projections by Wet Circuit, with a $500 cash prize for Best Costume, and because DJs Fonseca and Calagna are two of the hottest musicmakers throwing down righteous beats and melody, and most of all, because it’s Friday of NYC Pride weekend: get your Pride on with Desire!
