Sweet Darlings,
We’re basically at a midpoint of July (or as we’ve just bravely, wildly, named it, Jull-O. If you go to our Instagram you can see we even made a really fun Jull-O graphic with our fabulous graphic designer Dan. Because, dear reader, how often can we be forced to say these same month names over and over for the REST OF OUR LIVES!? We have to FEEL, goddamnit! For some, that involves skydiving (🙄) and for others, like us, that involves randomly renaming months. The associated risks are different, but the 💀⚡️ skull-rockin’ adrenaline⚡️💀 is one and the same. Don’t believe us? Find a scientist and ask her. The frizzier the hair THE SMARTER.)
It’s been a season of change here at Dynasty, as most seasons tend to be. We’ve said goodbye to Missy, our wonderful former GM. And now we’re saying HELLO to Brenna, our wonderful new Director of Operations! Brenna has weathered her first week at Dynasty well, and in her near future will be overseeing lots of exciting projects. If you’re at the theater and see a woman with great vibes and a name tag that says Brenna, say hello! And if they turn out NOT to be Brenna, then WHOOPSIE, you just got rocked in another DynaStaff Nametag Switcheroosday Tuesday. (These can happen any day, but the name remains the same. Regardless, it'll be a source of 💀⚡️ skull-rockin’ adrenaline⚡️💀 ) We’re so excited to have Brenna onboard, and so grateful for all the darlings in our life. 💞 Not on the darlings list: the big fridge warranty people, the popcorn machine warranty people ( #RIP Janet, our Princess of Pop), or the air conditioning repair people. They are on other lists. A new popcorn machine/ Pop Princess will come to life this week. What should we name her? We may not take any suggestions, but if we DO and if it’s YOURS there will certainly be some kind of PRIZE. 💰 🌽
Speaking of prizes... the first five people to respond to this email with a note about how they like to achieve their hits of 💀⚡️ skull-rockin’ adrenaline⚡️💀 get to come to this Saturday's Dynasty Tonight! show with a guest for free! We've got a killer line-up with Dana Gould and more, The DyNasties, and us hosting... it's gonna be weird and epic. Just ask anyone who's been at one of the last few shows. We're getting more and more batshit every week and manifesting really important world changing stuff. 🦇
Lustily,
VanJam
