Monster Truck is an arts and entertainment collective that debuted its show, “Everybody’s Birthday,” on Wednesday, Oct. 16. The event featured musicians and dancers, mainly from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. Produced by friends Hannah Franzen and Meenah Nehmeh, the event was held at “Rubulad” in Bushwick, Brooklyn, a secluded but vibrantly decorated venue embracing the show’s theme: celebrating everyone’s birthday. Known only to a tight-knit community, the event was promoted on Instagram, adding to its mystique allure. Performers dressed in colorful, eccentric birthday-themed outfits interacted with the audience in an immersive experience. One dancer named Party Princess said the show was “a place for everyone to connect and come together for one big happy celebration.” Musicians played throughout the night, their melodies guiding the dancers and the crowd. The grand finale featured a display of cakes, reminding everyone to celebrate. It’s all of our birthdays, so get your forks ready.
