ONE NIGHT ONLY!
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10 – 10 PM
After the hilariously terrifying SCARY TOWN experience in October, Spectacle is pleased to host SIMPLE TOWN for another special event.
On November 10th, Simple Town will be screening a retrospective of their video work, to trace the evolution of the their performance style across the different genres of video they’ve worked in– from parody, to grotesque clown, horror, and narrative film.
