A Bizarre (Theatre Bizarre) Evening

I had a lovely time at Theatre Bizarre’s Unholy Anointment, celebrating all that is dark, evil, and hidden in the shadows. It was the very best way to celebrate Halloween.

  • We found a surprising number of priests, nuns, and monks
  • Many dancers, of all kinds
  • Many rooms to explore, including the Sinema, the Odditorium, and the Fistitorium
  • a barbershop
  • and a barbershop quartet
  • A few devils,
  • A few bones
  • There were several diormas of the old Theatre Bizarre
  • With exceptional attention to detail
  • Many Theatre Bizarre signs
  • Waiting for the peep show to begin
  • Many bands, many dj’s
  • Lots of entertainment, including
  • dancing and sacrificing and fire and body suspension, so much to see and experience
  • Thank you, Jeff the ghostbuster, for a wonderful night!

Hamtown Fest!

There are so many things to do in the Metro Detroit area over Labor Day weekend, Mark and I chose to check out the Labor Day festival in Hamtramck.  Amazing food, great local bands, a midway, the festival is a lot of fun.  Not too crowded (on account of a little rain earlier), it was a lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon.  I hadn’t been to this festival in many, many years, it was fun, and a lot of fun checking out Hamtramck, and how much it has changed.
