Broadway Rave is a DJ dance night built on a simple premise: showtunes, cast recordings, and Broadway classics played at club volume for an audience that knows every lyric and isn't shy about it. The format has built a devoted following in Atlanta's theater and LGBTQ+ communities — a party where knowing the words to "Defying Gravity" or "The Phantom of the Opera" is the whole point rather than something to be embarrassed about.
The Masquerade's venue format works well here — a proper dance floor and a sound system that takes the material seriously. Broadway Rave at The Masquerade on June 6 is for anyone who has ever lip-synced alone to a cast recording and wanted to do it in public with a hundred other people who feel the same way.
