Bash The Fash: The 3rd Annual Playback Theatre Celebration for Queer + Trans Pride

  • Warehouse 505 202 Central Avenue Southeast Albuquerque, NM, 87102 United States (map)

Pre-Registration is now closed but there are still seats available. Get your tickets on site. Doors open at 1:30PM.

🚗 *IMPORTANT PARKING INFORMATION

Warehouse 505 is located on Central—near the corner of Broadway—just east of downtown. There is A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION in that area which makes it a bit confusing to find us.

Here's what you need to know if you are driving and parking at the venue…

  • Set your GPS to 110 UNION SQUARE ST SE. This will get you to a side street that you can park on.

  • To get there, you will come down Broadway and then turn west on Gold. You will drive one block until you dead end at Union Square Street.

  • IGNORE THE ONE WAY SIGN that indicates that you can only turn left. YOU MAY TURN RIGHT onto Union Square Street. I promise.

  • 110 Union Square Street is a parking lot…DON'T PARK IN THAT PARKING LOT. Instead, you can park in any legal spot on that block of Union Square Street. You can also park on Gold or even on Broadway if you need to.

  • Once you park, LOOK FOR THE RED GATE on Union Square Street. That is the entrance to the show!


There are quiet and sweet ways to gather.

This is not one of them.

Playback Theatre asks us to step up and tell the truth about our lives…in front of other folx.

No scripts.
No polish.
No filter.

Playback Theatre is punk as hell.

On May 31, we’re not just celebrating Pride. We’re screaming “We’re Here. We’re Queer. And we won’t disappear.”
