Just In: Pussy Riot Comes To Chop Suey AND Vera Project in March

Pussy Riot returns to Seattle in March of 2018 for shows at Chop Suey and the all ages Vera Project

Pussy Riot returns to Seattle in March of 2018 for shows at Chop Suey and the all ages Vera Project

Not a lot of deets but Seattle Theatre Group announced that the feminist/queer Russian activist band PUSSY RIOT is coming back to Seattle for a gig at Chop Suey on March 22, 2018. This is a 21+ gig. Tickets HERE.

Oddly enough, the punk group will stick around for another day and do a gig at the all ages Vera Project at Seattle Center the following night, March 23rd. Tickets for THAT show…HERE!

Pussy Riot or members of the collective group have visited Seattle yearly for the last few years with shows at The Neptune in 2016 and at The Crocodile in 2017.

To refresh your jaded, drugged, drunk memories, here’s the down low on Pussy Riot from a 2016 press release:

PUSSY RIOT is a Russian feminist punk protest group based in Moscow. Founded in August 2011, they have risen to global visibility over the last several years by staging unauthorized provocative guerrilla performances in unusual public locations. These performances are edited into music videos and posted on the Internet, as well as reported on widely by international media. Their lyrical themes include feminism, LGBT rights, opposition to the policies of Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom they regard as a dictator, and links between Putin and the leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church. In 2012, in a controversial ruling, three of the group members were jailed for hooliganism.

Upon their release from prison in 2013 as part of a number of pardons issued by the Russian government just before the Sochi Winter Olympics, Pussy Riot members Nadya Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina founded Zona Prava (Zone of Rights), an international NGO whose goal is to aid those who may be deprived of liberty in camps and prisons, but are not willing to be stripped of their dignity.

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
