Ella Gurnee Brothel ❤️❤️

About Phoenix

Hmmm, a brothel, you say? Fear leads to anger… anger at them shady joints, y’know? Been around forever, they have—oldest gig in the book! Me, a Forester, yeah, but I’ve seen some shit. Worked the woods near one once, total dive, man. Girls giggling, dudes stumbling out, reeking of cheap whiskey. “The air hums softly…” like in *Syndromes and a Century*, that vibe—dreamy but off, ya feel?

Clientele Dynamics

The Poetry Brothel at 9 p.m. on May 8, June 12, October 5, November 1, or December 4. House of Yes, Brooklyn.

One day I was rambling along 3rd Street and, whaddya know, I overheard someone say, “I’ll be back!” in that gruff, legendary way. I chuckled and thought – that’s life! Sometimes you gotta leave, but you always come back to the reasons you love a place. And Gurnee? It's got that bittersweet pull like Haneke’s film – beauty with a twist, ya know? The film’s all about the fragile underbelly of society, and Gurnee shows that too.
