Rococo Party at Galapagos (Sat, March 28)

On Saturday, March 28, at Galapagos in DUMBO, Brooklyn, we are going to be having our 4th Return of Rococo baroque-themed party featuring burlesque, aerialism, spectacles, hula hoop acrobats, feats of strength, juggling, magic, fortune telling, and the nouveau-electronic-baroque music and live art of Snazz Mammoth and kmbs.

Go to returnofrococo.com for full details.

Where: Galapagos Art Space, 16 Main Street, Dumbo Brooklyn (galapagosartspace.com)
When: Saturday, March 28, 9pm
Description: The extravagance of 1770 rococo Paris meets the eclecticism of 2009 underground New York nightlife.

Think Amadeus, Marie Antoinette, the Marquis de Sade, etc… but with a thoroughly modern twist.

This 4th installment of the Party will feature burlesque, aerialism, spectacles, hula hoop acrobatics, magic, juggling, baroque “makeovers”, fortune telling, live art, and live techno baroque and rococo rock music.

Powdered wigs, powdered faces, candelabras, masques, and big hair will all abound in the most baroque ball since the guillotine came down!
