Event

Cirque Disco-leil

Arcata Ridge Trail fans age 21 and older are invited to the Arcata Community Center for "Cirque Disco-leil," Saturday, Nov. 8 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20.

The evening is being organized by community activist and Greenway Partners project manager Debi Farber Bush. She put together the successful "Bat 'N' Rouge" drag comedy softball games at the Arcata Ball Park in 2010 and 2011 which raised thousands for the Ridge Trail.

Still being shaped up, Cirque Disco-leil will feature Caravan of Glam, a company of drag performers. Farber Bush is also in discussions with the Kinetic Queens, Va Va Voom Girls, Humboldt Roller Derby and their possible performers. SCRAP Humboldt will decorate the stage.
As with "Bat 'N' Rouge, "politicals and notables" local public officials and celebrities and will be summoned to appear and submit to Farber Bush's mischievous aspirations. Prizes will be awarded for best disco-themed costumes.

Good Relations will hold a sexy fashion show; music will be provided by DJ Joey; Humboldt Hot Sauce and Humboldt Distillery will offer Bloody Marys; local beer and wine will be available. Food trucks are being invited to set up a food court outside the Community Center.

More details available at the Humboldt Trails Council website, humtrails.org, and the Union site, madriverunion.com.

Interested sponsors and volunteers are invited to contact Farber Bush at (707) 845-3873.
