An E-Vortex of The Infinite, Comets, Gators, and Bats
Dear Dynasty Darlings,
🕰️ CLOCKTOBER 🕰️ (our fun Dynasty style send-up on the spelling and spirit of the month of October) is nearing its' half way point. In clock terms, this would be like the noon of the month. So basically, it's lunch time 🍿. But for the month. And in a few days it will be afternoon snack time 🍿. But for the month. And a few days after that, it will be supper time 🍿. But for the month. (Yes, we are a supper people.) And then, on the 31st, it will be like the midnight snack time🍿. But for the month. And just like that, we now know what an absolute thrill it must have been to be Bill Haley (or one of His Comets ☄️), in a constant state of "Rock[ing] Around The Clock!" 😊
When we opened the theater almost 8 years ago we had a ceremony to manifest the organic dropping of a Bill Haley (and His Comets ☄️) song reference into one of our newsletters. It took longer than we’d hoped but by gosh it just happened! It's always such a blessing when The Universe ✨ pulses it's light through your hands and into your keyboard and into Mailchimp and into the inboxes of thousands of people who now get to "Shake, Rattle, and Roll" with The Infinite ✨. Omg it happened again!! Safe to say that this is going to be a pretty sweet-ass week. But for the month. 😊
We'll use the rest of this god blessed missive to make an **OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!**: DEAD FROM DYNASTY! Our first Halloween event at Dynasty since 2022 will be happening on Halloween night! On the evening of October 31st, we'll be hosting a magical variety show with some of your favorite performers, with music and variety, and so much more! There will be a seance, a fish coffin ceremony of release, and a classic Dynasty costume contest/talent showcase. It will all take place in the mythical Guano Guano Club, a tropical and spooky batshit cabaret for animals and creatures and ghosts of Dynasty past. It's going to be a show and a party and we think, honestly, the best way to spend your Halloween. **Tickets will go fast, so get yours ASAP!** We can't wait for this enchanting, weird, and joyous ceremony and celebration and hope to see you there, all dressed up! And who knows, maybe the ghost of the great Bill Haley (and/or one of His Comets☄️) will make an appearance. 😊
See You Later, Alligator (OMG!!! ☄️✨🐊),
