THE EXPERIENCE
Snag your spot for the next round of film BINGO, hosted by none other than drag superstar Violet Hex! She’s bringing wild antics to the stage with the cult classic Pee-wee’s Big Adventure—plus fabulous prizes to match the madness!
ON SCREEN: Pee-wee’s Big Adventure
1985. Directed by Tim Burton. Runtime: 1hr 30min. Rated PG.
Pee-wee Herman, an eccentric child-like man, loves his red bicycle and will not sell it to his envious neighbor, Francis. While Pee-wee visits his friend Dottie, the bike is stolen. Thinking his bike is at the Alamo, Pee-wee sets off on a trip, where he meets many remarkable people, including waitress Simone and a motorcycle gang. Eventually, Pee-wee discovers that his bike is being used in a movie and tries to recover it.
ON STAGE: Violet Hex
Violet Hex is a maximalist drag starlet, DJ, cult cinema programmer, and a staple of Portland’s queer nightlife scene. Violet is known best for her larger-than-life drag performances and dramatic fashions, as well as for her work in Portland presenting queer celebrations of cult cinema throughout the decades. Living at the intersection of punk and disco, Violet Hex has opened for/collaborated with legends such as John Waters, Lady Miss Kier, Jinkx Monsoon, Susanne Bartsch, and Peaches Christ.
