Elevator, 4/F 218 Xinle Lu (near Donghu Lu)

Monthly queer club night at Elevator by local favorite DJ Michael Cignarale. Promoted as 'pansexual realness,' Medusa draws its inspiration from New York's queer underground and Shanghai's alt-youth scene. Mixed crowd, expect to see a smattering of drag queens and experimental style. Music is solid rasta house and disco, with the occassional impressive international act.
