John Del Signore, a writer at Gothamist, was invited to another of renowned secretive, illegal party planner Jeff Stark’s theatrical adventures. Signore said:
This time Stark was working on another night of illegal mischief coinciding with the Summer Solstice, and he wanted to know if I’d like to cover it. “It’s risky,” he warned.
These parties are so secretive that Signore was not provided with any other details regarding the party other than the initial email. The email warned that “this is an event with some legal and physical risks”. Just days before the underground party was due to take place, more details emerged. Signore was asked to complete an online questionnaire which provided the ‘where and what to bring’.
Which revealed that we’d be illegally entering a space dubbed the ‘Echo Vault, a temporary memory chamber dedicated to sonic experimentation and uncontrolled dance.’ I was told to bring a candle, a flashlight, and $20 for the performers.
These are the pictures Signore documented from the illegal underground party in a New York Subway:
