I’m the Mary!
An 80's & 90's Dance Party and Pedalpalooza Bike Summer Event

Is that an earthquake? No, it's I'M THE MARY, the cutest new dance party coming to Portland! Based on the timeless classic Romy & Michele's High School Reunion, we're bringing you a night of dance music from the 80's and 90's, iconic fashions, pop-up drag performances, and even a Vote! Now is finally your chance to prove you're the Most Changed for the Better Since High School!

Curating the musical vibe for the evening, we've got DJ Colin Jones (SNAP!), Chelsea Starr (LEZ DO IT), dj LéMix (Twirl), and Portland's very own Blue Horse Grandmother, Katya (Dollapalooza). And unlike some of those nightclubs in LA, we promise there will be cute guys to dance with. 

This event is not just a patio dance party: there will also be two sets of drag performances throughout the evening inspired by the movie — including a choreographed recreation of the iconic "Time After Time" dance sequence! Be there by 9 pm or you'll risk missing it. 

Dressing up for the occasion is highly encouraged! Whether it’s prom-inspired, businesswoman chic, a Madonna twin or a Beverly Hills salesgirl, make sure your look has nice lines and a fun, frisky use of color or you may face the wrath of Christie Masters and the A-Group. 

This party is also a Pedalpalooza Bike Summer Event, meaning it's the final stop on a Romy & Michele-themed Pedalpalooza ride occuring the same day. The bike ride is totally optional! If you're interested in the bike ride, meet at the Vera Katz Esplanade at 6 pm. The two-hour ride will end at White Owl Social Club at 8:30 pm, just in time for the performances. Everyone else — go straight to White Owl for the party! 

One last thing: bring a picture of yourself from high school if you'd like to be eligible for the Vote!
