Op-Docs Every Night in Quarantine, I Danced With Hundreds of Strangers When the coronavirus shut down clubs around the world, I found community in a queer dance party on Zoom.
By Aurora BrachmanMs. Brachman is a filmmaker. I first heard about Club Quarantine through the queer grapevine: For three to six hours every night of the week, a queer dance party with people from all over the world was unfolding online over Zoom.
My first evening in Club Quarantine, I kept my camera off. I was anxious about having my face broadcast to hundreds of strangers on the internet.
But quickly that fear was replaced with awe; I attended the party each evening and increasingly became comfortable with my camera on.
