Tales of over zealous sperm donors, neo beatniks, siblings getting wasted, Anna Nicole Smith, and the current election, all come to life in one of downtown's chillest performance venues. Sticky, is back, li’l style, with a limited 2 night run. Short plays are performed throughout the room, the audience is part of the setting, part of the party. The night starts when the audience arrives, they come to drink, they come to laugh, they come to have fun. With a quick introduction and a shift in the lights, any corner of the room suddenly becomes a back drop for drama, comedy, dance or cabaret, flowing seamlessly together with intermissions throughout the night. Based on the idea that theater is first and foremost “being in a room with people,” Li’l Sticky blurs the line between the artistic and the social, proving at every moment that anything that can happen can happen in a bar.
