Lovers and Other Monsters

The Hypnodrome
San Francisco, CA


Thrillpeddlers Hypnodrome presents
"Lovers and Other Monsters"
February 12 - 17

Jill Tracy in concert with violinist Paul Mercer
Thrillpeddlers preview 2008 productions
PLUS!  Jello Biafra, Monte Cazazza, V. Vale, Mel Gordon, Harmon Leon ... and introducing Creepshow Camp

With a diabolical nod to Valentine's (and Presidents) Day,  Thrillpeddlers present "Lovers and Other Monsters", a week-long line-up of live music and theatre, exquisite torture and expert testimony that all dare to touch the taboos that haunt these holidays.

The Hypnodrome has got the perfect perch for Valentine couples  our private Shock Box seats for two put a spookier spin on the old Parisian perk offering paramours a lodge-grille, the private trysting booths where you can see the show, but the show cant see you!.  Our variation takes it to extremes!  Each box boasts its own custom built special effects (a nod to the spooky gimmicks of director William Castle and the methods of fake spiritualists) and themed decor worthy of a haunted Madonna Inn.  

Check out the set list for this amazing week of shows:
