Zip, Zap, Love❤️ is an improv comedy show based on the classic dating show “The Dating Game”. A lucky group of singles compete for the opportunity to go on a date with a single bachelor/bachelorette. The bachelor/bachelorette will eliminate contestants based on their responses to questions they are asked until only one contestant remains. Be prepared to laugh as the only thing larger than the contestants thirst for a date, is their personalities.

Zip, Zap, Love❤️: Queer Night features an all Queer cast of characters. This show is going to be a blast, get your tickets now!

Join us for a dreamy evening celebrating cheese, flowers, and Pride! Philly Cheese School and Creations by Coppola are teaming up for a sweet little BYOB workshop that’s flavorful, flower-ful, and fully fabulous.

We’ll kick things off with a cheese class led by Julia Fox-Birnbaum, the founder of Philly Cheese School. You’ll learn how to taste, serve and pair cheese like a pro while enjoying a beautifully curated plate of seasonal, artisanal cheeses.

Then, with cheese in one hand and shears in the other, you’ll build your own floral arrangement to take home, guided by the talented team from Creations by Coppola. Expect fresh blooms, good vibes, and plenty of cheese-fueled creativity.

This event is proudly presented by two queer and woman-owned businesses in celebration of Pride Month! Come solo, bring a friend, or treat someone special—it’s the perfect way to spend a June evening.

Ticket includes:
A cheese tasting plate with guided instruction
All flowers + supplies to create your own arrangement
BYOB (if you’d like!)
Good tunes, good company, and good cheese

"Never Have I Ever overflows with life and magic, and if you are not familiar with the vibrant literary scene in the Philippines, let this serve as a worthy introduction."
-- Washington Post
