MCCLEANIACS! I am beyond stoked to tell you that I am performing with the literally awesome Lucent Dossier Experience/Lucent Enchantment Society (I don’t know if there’s a difference) for their New Year’s show a few days early on Dec. 29 at the incredible Clifton’s Republic in downtown Los Angeles. Buy tickets here!
If you don’t know the Lucent Dossier Experience, it’s like Cirque Du Soliel meets Steampunk meets a great psychedelic drug trip.
How did I get this amazing opportunity? It’s who ya know, bro!
The story: a long time ago I met a gal at my college in my acting class and our professor said we were like sisters from another universe or something. We of course became great friends till we graduated and we kinda lost touch. Till Facebook, of course! I found my pal Erin about 7 or so years ago and reconnected with her and discovered she was performing with this really cool performance collective called Lucent Dossier. I was an instant fan. The costumes and makeup and the talent! I never saw a live show, but just from what I saw on the internet, I knew I would love to be involved with Lucent someday, but I didn’t really think of how, nor did I put it to the front of my mind.
Then I moved back to California and a little under a year later, Erin contacted me to ask me if I wanted to collaborate with her and another performer, a musician named Ursula, to create an experience station at a Lucent Dossier Experience show. Of course I was like HELL YES, and here we are a couple months later, about to premiere our station at Lucent’s End of the Year show!
I know, you’re like “station?” what the heck is that? Well, without giving too much away, the 3 of us are hopefully going to be in a hidden part of Clifton’s that a roaming Lucent performer will lead you to. We’ll be playing music, singing… and washing your hands. I know, what? If you can make it, please come out. It’s going to be such a unusual and amazing experience.
Dec. 29! Tickets are here. Kill 2016 with us.
