Meet the performers of houseofyesnyc, Brooklyn's iconic sex-positive nightclub
How did you first come to call it home?
I moved to New York City in 2013, with the dream of becoming a full time performance artist. As an effeminate gay man living in a mostly heteronormative world, unless I pretended to be masculine and/or straight all the time, the dancing and acting roles out there were limited for me. Being masculine or straight is not the story I wanted to tell, and it did not push a narrative that I felt was important for people to hear because they hear it all the time.
A woman named Seanna Sharpe, known for illegally performing aerial hammock on the Williamsburg Bridge in 2011, came to teach weekly aerial classes at my college. She offered me a position in her intensive program in NYC and I trained with her for the next two years.
