So We’re Totally Kinda Stars Now?

This awesome flier was made by Eddie Booze!

As we’re a teeny little blog that’s churned out a mere handful of articles since the Halloween season ended, we’re a little surprised that we were invited to be special guests at Trillium Performing Arts’ Women in Horror Recognition Month event, Saturday Night (un)Dead next Saturday in Lewisburg.  At least, I was.  Special guest?  Me???  Surely someone deserves it more than me!  Then I remembered that we’re awesome and we do all sorts of awesome horror-related things like gorelesque burly q performances, creepy photo shoots and art classes, movies and writing…pretty much anything we can get our bloody little paws on.  So I squished all those stupid butterflies in my stomach, dammit, ’cause half the state can draw me naked from memory and I’ve already watched Twin Peaks twice this year; I’m ready for anything.

All you have to do is show up at 309 Beauregard Street this weekend and sing.  Don’t have a karaoke tape or a piano player handy?  No worries!  Just belt out your favorite rocknroll song for the nice people at Kanawha Players this Saturday August 4 from 5pm-9pm, or Sunday August 5 from 12pm-4pm.  You’ll have to try to perform a few simple dance steps as well, but don’t be scared.  YET.  Mwahahahaha!

The show is slated to run October 5th, 6th, 12th and 13th, and we’re sure it’s gonna be a horrorful start to everyone’s favorite season!
