Occult-based burlesque performance art show by Malum Malus built around the Samhain holiday, for 18+ audiences only.
Malum Malus brings its Samhain Burlesque to The VORTEX starting Thursday, October 29. It's a six-night run that carries through November 7, so you've got a good window to catch it.
Malum Malus is an occult-based burlesque ensemble that builds its work around the wheel of the year, and this particular show is centered on Samhainβthe witches' new year, when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. The production is created by Blaise Ricin.
For the show, the ensemble invites the audience into The Chantry, their inner sanctum. From there, the performers explore the roots of their practice through the archetypes and ancestors that shape them, calling upon the spirits of the dead protected only by a circle of candles. It's a burlesque show that leans into the occult side of the holiday rather than the costumes-and-candy side.
