Dorothy

Our projector & screen set up is going to get some A+ use Sunday & Monday with a film screening and karaoke!

Sunday night the Q***r Soccer Club Chi brings the Iranian film OFFSIDE to our lounge, showcasing passion and fearlessness by female soccer fans in Tehran, determined to see the live match against Bahrain.

Monday night Dorothy’s cozy karaoke night: The Living Room returns for its second month! This free night of intimate, fun & q***r karaoke is led by the “Annie Oakley of Karaoke” - Grecia Magdaleno!

Both events are free to attend! Doors at 6pm both nights. RSVP via our Events link in our bio. ✨

Thank you to bon appétit & Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner for coverage on the wave of le***an bars reopening, surviving & thriving including our own.

As always with incredible credit given to the Le***an Bar Project for putting so much work into the awareness of the dissipating le***an bar that helped inspire and give us the courage to reopen with that label - and for major publications like bon appétit for keeping the coverage going.

It’s almost that time! 🤶🏽

We’ll be transitioning our lounge into our Ms. & Ms. Claus holiday bar from November 24th - December 23rd!

Dorothy will be decked out in trees, Ms. Claus decor and we’ll have a brand new cocktail menu for you including six new cocktails and two new spirit free cocktails. You don’t want to miss celebrating and smooching under the mistletoe with us!

Make your plans to see us all month & grab your tickets to our holiday and holiday adjacent programming - like this snap from last year’s Lust for Life 😍

Also: donate a Ms. Claus item and get a free holiday shot - now through the end of the pop up. 🎄

We are CLOSED tonight 11/18 for a private event!

The Martin upstairs has their final gallery opening from 6-9pm and Split-Rail has dinner service (if you can get in!) from 6:30-10, so still some great opportunities in the building.

Come visit us tomorrow from 6-10pm and Psylo Soundz will be spinning all Mariah Carey from 8-10pm! ✨

TGIF! Make Dorothy your spot to celebrate tonight.

From 6-7pm our cocktail menu is only $8! From there we continue on until midnight.

We will be CLOSED tomorrow for a private event buyout so tonight is your proper weekend night to hang. Make your plans & get here.

Calling all Breanne Williamson fans - we’re screening her short sapphic film AGING OUT next Wednesday night!

Brooke is a Vancouver based actor and writer and as you all may know her - popular le***an Internet personality!

We’re thrilled for the chance to support her independent q***r filmmaking by sharing her short film with you next Wednesday. Aging Out is a sapphic romantic comedy with “all the laughs and none of the q***r trauma”.

Tickets are linked in our bio - an easy answer to what to do before the big eating holiday next week. ✨

See you cuties tonight for Fruit Salad as we officially start our *third* year of offering this q***r open mic!

Two remaining tickets opened up so if you’re interested in catching the show tonight go scoop them before they’re gone.

Doors at 6:45pm & our show starts at 7:30pm. Link in bio to grab those two tickets.

These are the exact vibes we’ll be experiencing in one week as we welcome back Psylo Soundz to Dorothy with A Cause for Celebration: Celebrating the Songbird Supreme Mariah Carey!

Mariah Carey has been on the scene since 1990 and you can celebrate her catalogue through the years with us on Sunday with a set compiled by her number one fan: Psylo.

Doors open at 6pm and Mariah tunes go all night! Dance, sing and cheers to an accomplished career and one of our favorite DJs who just officially returned to Chicago. 😎

Tickets are sliding scale $12-20 and you can grab yours via the link in our bio.

Tomorrow night we gather in silent camaraderie with our Silent Book Club!

We’ve made a few changes since last month including…

• SBC lasts all night! From 6-10pm we’ll keep the lights a little brighter and our music instrumental for ideal reading conditions.

• We have a streamlined cocktail menu for faster lines & happier drinkers

• Our bookshelf is up and live! Donate & borrow q***r books from our shelves any time - not just during SBC

Tomorrow we’ll also be joined by Claire M. Cunningham, attorney here in the city who is popping up with us handing out copies of In the Dream House along with resources to empower individuals experiencing intimate partner violence. Stop by to meet her, thank her for her generosity and take home a book!

RSVP for free for tomorrow’s event via the link in our bio. 📚

This Friday night you know where you want to be.
