Best of Boston

2014 Best Dance Party

The Donkey Show

In a clubscape that can feel highly fragmented, where night owls tend to find their micro-scene and stick to it, The Donkey Show at Oberon achieves the impossible: blurring every last social boundary with a scandalous amount of glittery skin and thumping disco anthems that thrust every gamine hip into reimagining Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the bacchanalia’s loosely insinuated theme. You will vogue on a platform. You will deeply contemplate Donna Summer. You will dance yourself dirty. Check the calendar for monthly Queen Nights, during which a special-guest diva takes the night’s energy—and the fantasy experience—even higher.
