Amanda Lepore - Come Closer LIVE (18+)
About This Event
Amanda Lepore, the transgender model, singer and performance artist formed in New York's Club Kid scene, performs a persona-driven set at Gramercy Theatre that draws on electroclash and ballroom-vogue. She is joined by Cazwell, a New York pop and club artist whose rock-pop songcraft and ballroom-inflected material favors direct address and tight pacing; the lineup emphasizes performance as method over linear narrative.
About Come Closer LIVE
Come Closer LIVE is a Rock/Pop performance currently playing at the Gramercy Theatre, staged as a one-night cultural event rather than a conventional concert run. Amanda Lepore is among the featured performers, bringing a downtown lineage that ties club aesthetics to contemporary pop presentation. In New York, Lepore’s presence carries its own history, rooted in the city’s nightlife and fashion ecosystems. The show’s strongest argument is its framing of persona as material, not decoration, and Gramercy becomes part of that narrative.
