EVERYONE IS WELCOME AT THESE PARTIES
With a fierce commitment to inclusivity and celebrating the beauty of individuality, Company XIV captivates audiences throughout Pride Month with its awe-inspiring shows and a glittering gesture of support for LGBTQ+ rights. The troupe is thrilled to announce that a portion of the Pride Month proceeds from both spectacular extravaganzas, Cocktail Magique and Seven Sins, will beneï¬t the American Civil Liberties Union Drag Defense Fund. They support the ACLU’s commitment to defend the rights of LGBTQ people and drag performers.
You can unlock a scintillating 14% discount on all tickets to Cocktail Magique and Seven Sins (see Stage and Cinema‘s rave review here) throughout Pride Month and save on a glittering night out while supporting freedom of expression across the country. Also, Company XIV pledges to donate an additional 14% of every ticket reserved with the “PRIDE” code to the ACLU Drag Defense Fund.
The daring, innovative, and proudly pansexual Company XIV showcases two simultaneous productions that leave spectators awestruck. Combining breathtaking choreography, dazzling costumes, and awe-inspiring talent, these shows transport audiences to inclusive worlds that defy conventional boundaries.

Audiences will flock to Company XIV’s inclusive shows this June to commemorate Pride among extravagant costumes, sensual choreography, and unapologetic celebrations of expression. “Company XIV loves to challenge norms and create experiences where every guest feels welcome regardless of their gender or sexual identity,” says Founder and Artistic Director Austin McCormick. “Meanwhile state legislatures across the country are going out of their way to make queer and especially trans people feel invisible and unwelcome. It’s despicable. We’re honored to support the ACLU’s commitment to defend the rights of drag artists and trans people across the country.”

As a part of its dedication to realizing the promise of the United States Constitution for all, the American Civil Liberties Union works to ensure that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people can live openly without discrimination and enjoy equal rights, personal autonomy, and freedom of expression and association. The ACLU Drag Defense Fund supports the organization’s work defending LGBTQ rights, including censorship of drag performers.
