The winner of multiple "Best of the Bay" awards, the SF Chronicle calls Ruckus "a dazzling, inspiring and celebratory display of talent" and "a tent revival for misfits and freaks, those whose artistry or spectatorship has a homespun bent and a bandit streak." About DISCO DONUTZ https://www.facebook.com/discodonutzparty Disco Donutz is celebrated as one of the Bay Area’s most inclusive and interactive dance parties. With a commitment and passion for building community through radical inclusion and radical self-expression, their celebrations of diversity create safe spaces & dance experiences for humans (and monsters) of all identities.
