An occult-inspired burlesque performance by Malum Malus that celebrates the traditional Lammas harvest festival through performance art.
The VORTEX presents Malum Malus: Lammas Burlesque on Wednesday, August 12, in Austin. It's a burlesque show with a specific theme: Lammas, the traditional festival of the first harvest. The whole thing is built around that, with the performance art marking the occasion.
If you're not familiar with the name, Lammas is the old-school celebration of the first grain harvest, usually falling around early August. The show takes that as its starting point and leans into an occult-inspired take on burlesque, so it's not your standard variety bill. The Malum Malus program is what's on the bill, and the whole evening is framed by that Lammas connection.
