Amber Vineyard's Pearl Dive: The Rising
Back by popular demand!
After the wild ride of Pearl Dive, it was clear: this chapter had to rise again. Directed by the Legendary Mother of Sirens, Amber Vineyard, The Rising is an explosive, sexy and deeply tender theatrical experience — a night of queer ritual, gender myth, and the glittering mess of becoming. Amber invites you to slip beneath the surface into a liquid realm where we honor the erotic. Catch this déjà vu dream where identities blur & memories of last edition glitch.

Pearl Dive
At the heart of The Rising is Ambiance — the hyper-femme fantasy conjured by Amber Vineyard — on a surreal journey through collapse, devotion, and over-the-top resurrection. She is accompanied by a cast of queer prophets, performers, and shapeshifters who lead the audience through acts of glorious mess, ritual care, and the beauty in change.
Pearl Dive is a submersion into the depths of queer erotic power. A cabaret, a ritual, a realm. This is a liquid space devoted to everyone-in-between, Queer Female Figures, Lesbians, Non-Binary & Gender Non-Conforming beings, and those of Trans experiences. Here, we allow the hidden parts of ourselves to emerge. We celebrate the expansive spectrum of gender and sexual expression through performance, presence, and play. In this space, we are the fantasy. We honor the erotic as a source of power, pleasure, and connection. Hot, queer, and transformative shit, by and for Hot Queer Beings. Hosted by the legendary Amber Vineyard.
Whether you’re a seasoned Pearl Diver, a trembling Virgin, an Inexperienced Swimmer, or simply have a strong calling for pearls, come as you are and let the current guide you.
