Tomorrow 6pm · Chicago

If you’re in your late 20s or 30s and looking for community and new friends with similar interests (locked in during the weekdays and maybe a lil feral on the weekends—go figure hehe), I’m trying to build a community of women who genuinely support each other, show up for fun, and create space for connection. Career-driven, loves health but also enjoys a good party here and there. Think: cute events, healing + balance unhinged energy, friendships that will maybe eventually feel like home. Maybe you’ll find your people here, maybe not but it wouldn’t hurt to try. I’m starting the evening by getting you randomly placed into small groups, easing in with drinks and conversation, and then moving through a guided experience focused on two things: 🔥 Burning what no longer serves us ✨ Manifesting what’s coming You’ll write, reflect, laugh, release, and then take part in a home-made burn ritual to let go of whatever you’re done carrying. No pressure! This is just your regular apartment hang with intentions ❤️ Light snacks and drinks will be provided, and a small token for showing up 😉 Money is for me renting my apartment lounge area, supplies and light snacks and drinks. Once you rsvp follow me on ig @estelaerfe, if you need me to print a photo of what you want to burn, Ill print it for you. Because this is a small, curated event, your spot is non refundable but you’re always welcome to transfer your spot to someone else if needed.

In Pursuit Of - New Theatre in Chicago!

March 5th to March 15th · Chicago

Loosely inspired by Dostoevsky’s Crime And Punishment, the play In Pursuit Of (Written by Zoé Soteres) follows Theo, a young man navigating life in an unfamiliar city while balancing the pressures of college & a dead-end data entry job. He toils under the shadow of a younger, more successful boss, who humiliates him at every turn, pushing Theo to adopt the morally ambiguous teachings of his academic advisor. As the demands of home, work, and school intensify, Theo becomes fixated on securing a promotion and outmaneuvering his boss, even if it means compromising his own ethical boundaries. In the meantime, he encounters a myriad of characters who challenge his notions of right and wrong, ultimately leading him on a tumultuous journey of atonement and self-discovery.
