Billy Porter, Janet Mock, and more came out to celebrate the season 2 premiere of Pose at the Paris Theatre June 5. The Ryan Murphy series is set to return to FX June 11 at 10 PM ET.
The second season of Pose, which focuses on the New York City ball scene through the lens of the Black and Latinx queer community that shaped it, will move the action from the '80s to 1990. The first episode is set the day Madonna released “Vogue,” bringing the ball culture staple to the masses.
