Dances of Vice: Vintage & Themed Events NYC

DANCES OF VICE is the art of nightlife once again revived. The creation of Shien Lee, Dances of Vice began in New York in 2007 as a venue showcasing an exotic melange of art, performance and music influenced by that special time in history, the 1920s and 30s. Since then, it has blossomed to include Victorian and Rococo themed events with a New Romantic flair, attracting a sordidly splendid menagerie of elegant dandies, aesthetes, dreamers and ne'er-do-wells who gather in shared enthusiasm for the music, fashion, culture, and beauty of times forgotten.

The grand vision that is Dances of Vice is more than the name implies; it is the Dance of decadence, of opulence and glamour, and the unique bringing together of today's new romantics through themed evenings that combine Art, Music, Spectacle and Dance. Dances of Vice incorporates a myriad of magnificent influences of the past in Dadaistic celebration of the liberating effects of beauty, fantasy and surrealism.
