ABOUT
Night of 1000 Kates is an evening shameless ecstatic lushness in Philadelphia, using Kate Bush’s craft as the source material.
Inspired by NYC’s long running Night of 1000 Stevies, friends and artists—Cookie Factorial, Danielle Redden, and Crystal Kovacs—launched Night of 1000 Kates in Philadelphia in 2014.
Over the past ten years hundreds of dancers, musicians, magicians, storytellers, performance artists, and freaks - mostly hailing from Philly - have performed in this special evening of revelry.
