Put on your high heels or your hero costume or both at this benefit Halloween party.

Brooklyn based performance collective A Collection of Shiny Objects hosts NERD PROM 2: HEROES ‘N’ HEELS. A themed party the Saturday before Halloween to celebrate the great “nerd” heroes: in capes and spandex, corsets and stilettos or all of the above. Attendees are encouraged to come in costume for the costume contest. Event will be hosted by Adam Lerman of the The Harmonious Pimps of Harmony. Brooklyn based acts that are scheduled to appear include Lost Gloves, Nathan Leigh and the Traveling Salesman, and Joe’s Pub regular Molly Pope.


Tickets: $20 in advance or $25 at door.


All proceeds support A Collection of Shiny Objects’ upcoming 2012-13 projects, including QUEERSPAWN, a new play by Mallery Avidon, and DARLING, a new rock/video game/hipster musical, adapted and inspired by Peter Pan and pop culture.
