On The Edge: S&M Means Stand and Model ~ Mad Men Cosplay Party @ The Studio
May 30 @ 1:00 AM – 7:00 AM

 

May 29th is President Kennedy’s Birthday! Come join us at The Studio.

The show Mad Men has inspired a lot of folks to be more conscious of the clothes they wear. We are having a fashion night/play party for those that like to play dress up. If you identify as male for the evening wear a suit. If you identify as female: wear vintage dresses or lingerie, stockings, high heels (maybe a corset) and absolutely no pants.

We will be constructing a demonstration scene based on 1950’s/1960’s kinky household play and over the knee spanking. Break out your Grandma’s recipe book and bring a dish to pass (Waldorf salad, anything with spam, triscuit with spray cheese, deviled eggs). We will be playing Dirty Charades and Bondage Twister.

There will be a designated area for Photo Whores and Paparazzi.

Unlike Mad Men, this event is clean and sober, no alcohol, drugs or smoking allowed. This event is open to anyone 18 years or older. IDs with proof of age will be required at door.

$10 Donation and bring a dish to pass.

On The Edge Presents: “Give Me The Code!” Military Style Intelligence Gathering & Interrogation Play Workshop ~ Chicago @ The Studio
Jul 1 @ 2:00 AM – 7:00 AM

 

On The Edge is offering “Give Me The Code,” an Intelligence Gathering Interrogation workshop with Ken Melvoin-Berg (@Kreamy) and Fetlife’s @Happy-Venom. These two gentlemen (well, always polite but not necessarily gentle!) are former Special Forces military folks (ok technically, Ken was only “elite,” not special) involved with interrogation or its aftercare.

Get ready to delve into extreme edge play, psychological play, pressure points, electric persuasion, water tortures and more!

Throughout the course of the evening Ken and Mr. Venom will address interrogation, confirmation and reward plus some of the extreme tactics the intelligence community uses to retrieve top secret information. They will also look at after effects including psychological aftercare, PTSD, Stockholm Syndrome, etc.

There will be much more information here than your typical BDSM Interrogation class– this is the real deal! To facilitate learning and bring together all of the elements discussed, they will conduct an intense live interrogation scene for the class.

Class will conclude with Q & A followed by open playtime at The Studio.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This event is 18 years of age and up, clean and sober. No drinking, drugs or smoking allowed in The Studio. It will take place on 6/30/12 from 9pm to 2am. Late comers are welcome, but we will be starting the class at 9:45pm sharp.

This class is a $20 donation (more if you can afford it).
