Welcome to The Pink Hotel Lobby

Some guests check in.

Others remember they’ve been here before.

The Pink Hotel is not a hotel.

At least, not in the way you expect.

The Pink Hotel is Vaudezilla’s immersive story world, connecting live performances, interactive theater, burlesque, cabaret, and unforgettable experiences throughout Chicago.

Behind its glowing marquee and velvet doors lies a living world filled with mysterious residents, hidden rooms, secret histories, and stories waiting to unfold.

Some arrive seeking entertainment.

Some arrive seeking inspiration.

Some arrive seeking connection.

Some arrive because something deep inside already recognizes the place.

Wherever you are in your journey, there is a room waiting for you.

She sees what others cannot. Guests often leave her room with more questions than answers.

Sylvia Sable — The Siren

A performer, a dreamer, and a collector of impossible stories. Her influence can be felt throughout the hotel.

Nothing truly belongs to Marlowe. Yet somehow everything eventually finds its way into her possession.
