Day of the Dead / Halloween Extravaganza

Cross Street Studios, in collaboration with "the North Americans," hosted this elaborate Halloween event, transforming the gallery space into a "hall of carnage, mysticism and mayhem". Dubbed the "charnel house of your soul”, the event featured provocative entertainment: live music from Whoregy, Stress Cadet, Flick, Ultraterrestrial Transponder, Mothers of Darkness and Leader to Ruin; burlesque performances by Leda Petite and Scarlet Serpentine; and tarot readings by Mara the Magnificent. There were also numerous "tricks and treats" including a live exorcism, lynching, piñata, candy and mystery prizes.
