Trauma Season!

Trauma is a halloween fetish party that occurs every October in Columbus. It's more of an entire season for performers. Trauma season starts months before the actual even and ramps up in October leading up the the three days of strange and unusual bliss. It's October 29th-31st at The Bluestone and we just had another rehearsal last night. I get to perform with Button and Her Notions as Snap La Snap for Thursday's show. The Theme is fire and she is doing The Evolution of Fire. She works tirelessly on stop motion videos and I can't wait to see them. The rocket ship animation she did last year was magical. We danced last night and I just love it when she choreographs. It's a challenging series of movements but after last night I think I am getting it more.

We also rehearsed for the final number for The Trulie Awesome Show last night. We perform at Friday's Show. This is a song and number I have had in my head for at least a year and seeing it on the performers it's a dream come true! They are making me so proud! I can't wait for them to be in full costume. There are several moving parts to this 11 minute show. The hardest part we start on Saturday and since it will be the opening number I am very nervous.

Tonight though, Trulie Awesome Show performs at Wild Goose Creative as part of the Best of The Underground series. Anime Cosplay and Gaming. We will do our comedy then zoom off to KDB at Easton for a CD102.5 Battle of The Bands. Our band ElectroCult Circus is in round two!

ElectroCult Circus is in Trauma too, also performing Thursday evening. I will be twirling fire!! I've been twirling since I was 7 or so. My mom was a majorette. It's one of those skills I am forever grateful to my mother for forcing me to learn. I started to twirl fire a few years ago and I am in love with it. I rarely get to do it because permits and insurance are so hard to get for it.

Saturday is the last day of Trauma and Button and I will be performing as our true selves. No wigs no costumes no props. Talk about terrifying. I trust her though, I am in good hands and it will be a moving piece. This one is actually starting to be the one I most look forward too because it is something I have not done before.

Trauma tickets are available: Tickets! This is also a charity event. Costumes are required, the theme is not. Thursday is FIRE Friday is KINGS AND QUEENS and Saturday is DYSTOPIA
