NEW YORK CITY — Tennis Season is in the air and Ideal Glass and Red Ball Tennis are teaming up to bring tennis to the afterlife — and everyone else. Zombie Tennis, a theatrically immersive, community-powered, inviting guests to play Red Ball Tennis — a slower, beginner-friendly version of the sport — while dressed as zombies, ghosts, and other reanimated icons of the court. Whether you’ve never picked up a racquet or you’ve been training for the zombie apocalypse, the game is “so easy, even the dead can play.”

 Tennis Meets the Afterlife

Inside the experimental spirit of Ideal Glass Studios, Zombie Tennis will unfold across custom-built mini court where social matches are played in full costume. Prizes will be awarded for Creepiest Serve, Funniest Zombie Walk, and Best Undead Tennis Look. Between volleys, guests can enjoy curated zombie film screenings, photo ops, dancing and interactive art — a playfully satirical “closing ceremony” for tennis season that invites fans, athletes, artists, and curious onlookers into an unexpected new arena of engagement.

 Event Features:

• A Red Ball Tennis Court for all levels – even the undead

• Costumed Play & Awards for best zombie tennis getups

• Zombie Movie Lounge featuring cult classics

• Photo Booths, DJ & Libations

• Social Mixer Zones for humans and otherwise

• Live Media Coverage and online content creation

 Mission & Audience

• Make tennis accessible, silly, and socially engaging

• Invite new audiences through humor, cosplay, and cultural crossover

• Celebrate Red Ball Tennis's push for inclusive programming

• Showcase Ideal Glass’s commitment to playful, creative community events

Whether you’re a diehard tennis fan or a dance-floor zombie with a mean backhand, this event offers a rare opportunity to engage with tennis in a whole new light — and maybe even moonwalk your way through a Thriller halftime dance break.

Step into IDEAL DROP, a visionary collaboration between Ideal Glass Studios and Tokyo Dolores that redefines the boundaries of immersive performance. Rooted in the question, “What is the definition of THE IDEAL?”, this production speaks to all who seek their dreams—even when the path feels just out of reach. Through the eyes of the prophet of the castle (Willard Morgan) and the seeker (Cay Izumi), audiences are drawn into an intimate atmosphere where desire, struggle, and transcendence intertwine. Acrobatic contemporary dance, poetic language, cinematic visual effects, dynamic lighting, and enveloping sound design merge —crafting an otherworldly realm where the cast and audience become part of a unified, living experience. This is not just a performance—it’s a challenging emotional journey into the heart of the IDEAL WORLD.

In the throes of the Roaring 20’s, it was neither the bootleggers, Broadway producers, nor Wall Street bankers who held the secrets of the decade. It was Polly Adler, a Madam of notoriety who ran a house that entertained the likes of New York’s most powerful players of the 1920’s. From her beginnings as a young Belarusian-Jewish immigrant, Polly Adler ushered in the modern-era of sex work, becoming a successful and influential figure in her own right. Written by creative duo Felix Jarrar and Bea Goodwin, Madam tells the story of a young woman’s journey to find home, and the lessons she learns along the way.

Madam will be presented at the Ideal Glass Studio Mansion in the historic West Village. This exclusive experience is a three part event, and each ticket includes an invitation to the pre party, the opera premiere, and the after party! Join us before the opera at Polly’s Parlor for live music, games, and drinks. After the premiere, stay to experience one of Polly’s own infamous parties. Attendees are encouraged to dress the part (1920s glam)! This premiere will be raising funds for a longer run of Madam across different boroughs. This immersive event will fuse the decadence of a historic speakeasy with the luminescence of a new opera, cultivating what is sure to be an unforgettable experience. GET TIX HERE.
