ALOK - first time in RIGA!
ALOK (they/them) is an internationally acclaimed poet, comedian, public speaker, and actor. ALOK’s literary works “Beyond the Gender Binary,” “Femme in Public,” and “Your Wound, My Garden,” have garnered global recognition. Their dynamic presence has captivated audiences in over 40 countries, with sold-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Netflix is a Joke Festival.
ALOK's first comedy special BIOLOGY! [alokvmenon.com] was executive produced by Christopher Guest. They are the subject of the docu-short “ALOK” executive produced by Jodie Foster and directed by Alex Hedison, which made its debut at the Sundance Film Festival in 2024.

Opening Act—whatever mike
Accompanying ALOK, musician and artist whatever mike brings a genre-defying musical act to start the show.
whatever mike crafts lush soundscapes that exist at the intersection of queer spirituality, emotional depth, and vocal mastery. Their music is a meditation on healing, devotion, and self-discovery—an invitation to sit with life’s paradoxes and embrace both light and shadow, movement and stillness.
Sonically, their work lives somewhere between James Blake’s emotional depth, Bon Iver’s layered intimacy, and Frank Ocean’s fluid warmth. whatever mike’s music isn’t just meant to be heard—it’s meant to be felt.
