Day of the Dead / Halloween Extravaganza

For one night, Cross St Studios collaborated with the North Americans to transmute the gallery into a hall of mysticism and mayhem for the elaborate Day of the Dead / Halloween Extravaganza.

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. Adding to the mayhem were various "tricks and treats", such as a live exorcism, a piñata and mystery prizes.
