cordially invite you to

Masquerade Macabre

A marvelous and mysterious event...a Halloween celebration of the extravagant and the grotesque...a spectacle of atmosphere, costumery and diverse entertainments...an explosion of live music, dancing, circus arts, fire and late-night revelry, snake-charmed into an absinthe-fueled early-morning speakeasy.

Live:
- Hand-cranked phonograph music by WFMU DJ Michael Cumella
- Exotic Balkan rhythms by Raya Brass Band
- Victorian music box mix, toy piano mayhem and circus techno by Sxip Shirey
- A pineal-tingling sunrise blend of live flute over world electronica by SuKhush
- Vintage soul + funk remix breakfast set by Cloud

Plus:
- Fantastical face & body painting by Painteresse Elyzabeth
- Frighteningly accurate fortunes told by practitioners of the occult arts
- Mystifying silver film likenesses produced in front your very eyes by Tsirkus Fotografika
- Delectable treats served all night, and breakfast at 7am

And for the daring few:
- Absinthe and other mind-altering potions by The House of St Eve (yes, t.h.o.s.e. cocktails...)

Costume inspiration:
Dark Victoriana, macabre carnival, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Georges Melies & Brothers Quay films, Edward Gorey, cabinet of curiosities
