Back by popular demand! This is Not a Date: Pride 2026 is for queer connection-making. LGBTQ+ folks are invited to see if sparks fly at this Theatre of the Oppressed (T.O.)-based social mixer. All are welcome, including those with no T.O. experience.

Looking to make new connections with artists and activists? Interested in romance, new friends, collaborators, or comrades? This is Not a Date is for you. Join us at the Theatre of the Oppressed NYC to play a selection of T.O. and theatre games, enjoy some light refreshments, and chat about what we want from our relationships of all kinds, before we break off into one-on-one pairings to get to know each other. It's like speed dating with less pressure and more Magritte.

You don't have to be single to attend! This event is for connection-making in all forms. No T.O. experience needed.
