…

999 EYES vaudevillian freakshow is the last genuine traveling freakshow in the U.S. featuring authentic human oddities, an authentic freakshow museum, Lowrent the Clown, and LIVE music from their dark carnival jug band -That Damned Band. SEE THE HISTORY AND PRESENT OF FREAKSHOW.  The 999 eyes tours an authentic American dime museum called the Museum ov Mutantstrosities.

PERFORMERS

SKY CANDY AERIALISTS presents Chelsea Laumen on Silks. Chelsea Laumen is a professional performance artist, teacher and community activist. An integral part of the Birimbau Academy of Capoiera, Chelsea has served as a co-choreographer, core artist, student and also teacher of the Afro-Brazilian martial dance form in her beloved New Mexican community.

SAVONNE THE MINX is a versatile-vixen who can point tootsies en pointe, tappa-tappa tap dance, and saunter and twirl to a mishmash beat.  A magnetic medley of the magical kind let her exceed your expectations, unbind your boundaries, and find your fancies. She wears the music like a shade of lipstick, and can quick-change garters in the dark with only seconds to spare. Savonne danced with the award-winning dance troupe, Eye Candy Burlesque, and has performed everywhere from Kansas City to Little Rock. A magnetic medley of the magical kind, so let her exceed your expectations, unbind your boundaries, and find your fancies!

CIARA BLOSSOM, a.k.a. the Hula Hoop Enchantress specializes in spiral seduction with 2 tiny fire-hoops, and the smooth fluid movements of L.E.D glow hoops.  She brings a funky fresh vibe to any and all festivities.  Armed with a giggly golden smile, ornate handmade costumes, and wicked sick tricks to mesmerize and inspire audiences long after the show is over. Get ready to be captivated by the smooth magic of movement!

STRAWBERRY ignites her hoops of fire to manipulate the flame through play and dance.  This fire twirling Sprite is sure to delight!

IRIS THE ARTISTE transforms into the bodyart painting Gypsy who won’t tell you your future but will help create one with you. Just give her a section of your body, details of your New Year’s Resolution and let the creation begin.

BANDS

MINOR MISHAP MARCHING BAND is a renegade brass band– Bourbon Street meets Budapest.  An absurd expression of boisterous pandemonium and washboard-tuba-punk-rock ridiculousness: fun, loud and in the streets.

INTERSTELLAR TRANSMISSIONS is carnivalesque Shamanic Tribal Rock Fusion blending exotic sacred healing scales and frequencies with dynamic fast changing, primal rhythms.  Interstellar Transmissions takes you on an epic journey of the soul that encompasses a vast spectrum of emotional depth, magic, excitement and color.
FunkOtron Weird Magazine writes, “The Energy FunkOtron put out was intense and grooving with sick sounding funk rhythms that border with psychedelic jazz. The funky riffs were so tight, I had to step back and slap myself!

HOLDING SPACE is a triply element to Jazz Psychedelic Funk.

 

8:00pm 999 Eyes Freakshow
9:15pm Minor Mishap Marching Band
10:00pm Sky Candy Aerialists
10:15pm 999 Fire Eater Freakshow
