"HEARTMOOR" is a dark romantic opera that blends raw performance, dance, multimedia, music, singing, absurdist theater, and pop into a hallucinatory sensory experience. Performed in both English and Spanish, the work moves through fairy-tale and telenovela logic while exploring love, desire, revenge, guilt, transformation, and queer becoming through nonlinear storytelling and surreal imagery. Part irreverent comedy and part reflective drama, "HEARTMOOR" creates a dreamlike world that draws from performance art, video art, improvisational dance, and experimental theater while remaining deeply rooted in border culture and personal mythology. This special production of "HEARTMOOR" features collaborations with distinguished guest artists whose work has helped shape San Diego's contemporary theater and dance landscape. "mysterium tremendum et fascinans" — terrifying and magnetic, overwhelming and impossible to resist. Schedule: September 25, 2026 7 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. September 26, 2026 7 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. September 27 2026 2 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. viktor_delafuente on Instagram

The Blank Table is reimagining San Diego's culinary scene through secret dining experiences that bring people together over exceptional food, cocktails, and conversation. Built around the idea that there's no one way to gather, guests are invited to come solo, with friends, or for a special occasion, sharing an unforgettable evening around one blank table. Each one-night-only experience features a five-course prix fixe menu with curated cocktail pairings, all set in a hidden location revealed to guests just 24 hours before the event. Committed to supporting local creatives and showcasing sustainable, seasonal ingredients, The Blank Table transforms unexpected spaces into immersive, community-driven dining experiences. Our next dinner, June 25, features acclaimed Chef Kass DeLeon of The Service Animals, whose deeply personal cuisine draws from her Mexican heritage and San Diego roots, alongside Seth Sandoval of Kiku Room, celebrated hospitality leader and founder of Happy Hour Heroes, who will craft bespoke cocktail pairings for the evening. Join us for a night of thoughtful food, inspired drinks, and meaningful connections, all around a blank table. The Blank Table on Facebook / Instagram
