’Overkill’, a dissolute lounge for the mildly curious, is the  
latest addition to Ottawa's night life, produced by Sara Ainslie  
(Mercury Lounge & Collection).
Figuratively & literally under ground at 56 Byward Market Square, the  
club is a venue for live music, spoken word, performance art and  
multimedia installations.
As pioneers in alternative programming, we deliver diversions for the  
bold and the curious.

Conceptualized by Guy Bérubé (La Petite Mort Gallery),  
‘Overkill’ is evocative of the plush playgrounds of the modern  
era, where Jackie O meets Hugh Hefner.
Exhibitionists & Voyeurs are invited to mingle with guest performers  
and sample vintage mixology in a safe haven featuring black vinyl  
metal-studded
banquettes, Studio 54 mirrored tabletops and Italian 70’s lighting.

Featured artist: Sarah-Jane Schorlemer & her photographic series on  
"Sex Toys".
