MONSTER’s BALL  (21+)
Circus * Poetry * Rap Battle * Burlesque * Comedy * Dance Party
Doors: 8pm / Showtime: 9pm
 
The Ruckus Revival and Disco Donutz Circus come together for the first time ever for an epic pre-Halloween variety show & dance party collaboration! Monster’s Ball stitches together the Bay Area's longest running and most notorious renegade variety show with the wild & colorful dance community of Disco Donutz in a madcap celebration for Monsters everywhere!
 
Don’t miss this mashup of the bizarre, bloody & beautiful. Half Ruckus Revival, half Disco Donutz, Monster’s Ball is a Halloween carnival party of dark circus, killer clowns, eerie aerialists, sinister stand-up comedians, zombie strip shows and haunted hip-hop followed by a devilish dance party featuring DJs with tricks & treats of their own.
 
Monster’s Ball is a themed event in honor of all creatures of the night & fright. Costumes are welcomed and strongly encouraged with special showcases for the best dressed & deranged.

 About THE RUCKUS REVIVAL 
https://www.facebook.com/theruckusrevival
Ruckus is a non-stop ride full of uncensored circus, stand-up comedy, burlesque, contortion, pole performance, freestyle battle rap, aerial artistry, beat-boxing, lyrical bouts, shocking sideshow, hilarious dirty haiku bouts & more! The winner of multiple "Best of the Bay" awards, the SF Chronicle calls Ruckus "a dazzling, inspiring and celebratory display of talent" and "a tent revival for misfits and freaks, those whose artistry or spectatorship has a homespun bent and a bandit streak."
 
Disco Donutz is celebrated as one of the Bay Area’s most inclusive and interactive dance parties. With a commitment and passion for building community through radical inclusion and radical self-expression, their celebrations of diversity create safe spaces & dance experiences for humans (and monsters) of all identities.
