10:30pm-3am
In collab with  ShalomDykes, Flaminggg, Tarimi, and Hebro
@ The Stranger

Join Lab/Shul and Flaminggg to immerse in a Purim Eve experience, where Sonic revelry and performance art collide to transform sacred Noise into a powerful force for this moment. Set within the enigmatic Silencio NYC—bathed in moody, Lynchian allure—this underground sanctuary of sound and spectacle becomes the perfect portal into Purim’s darker depths. Here, where illusion and revelation blur, we step into the shadows of the story—the masked identities, whispered plots, and the precarious dance between power and fate—summoning sacred Noise to confront the chaos and emerge transformed.

Featured Artists: Ben Freeman, Shira Kline, Naomi Less, Stuart B. Myers and Sarah Sokolic
