"Lilith Lore:  Poison Apples & Pretty Witches" has been scheduled for 2:15 on the main stage at The Totally Normal Event!  On that very same stage, later that night you can catch gothic Renaissance man, Voltaire at 9:15.  That leaves you plenty of time to catch Brian Viglione's drum workshop and The White Elephant Burlesque Society on the secondary or "Secret" stage at 3:30 and 8:00 respectively.  Then at midnight, shamble over to the Zombie Room to catch a showing of Dead At The Box Office, an independent horror movie produced and written by one of Shannon's friends from her days with The Home of Happiness.

Even with all that going on, you may still have some time to fill, so please visit some of the event's vendors and panels, participate in the Steam Punk Costume Contest and absolutely place a bid or two in the silent auction.  Remember, this event is to benefit a SPARC, a summer program for gifted children.

A bit of sad news today:  Shannon will not be performing the role of the Mock Turtle in the White Elephant Burlesque Society's WEBS in Wonderland at The Totally Normal Event.  WEBS, like so many excellent performance troupes, is a labor of love, and its directors and performers must buy costumes with their own money and choreograph and rehearse in their spare time.  Due to personal lives, day jobs and a recent surge of other bookings, WEBS in Wonderland simply won't be coming together in time for TNE. 

But worry not!  WEBS will be putting on a non-themed show for TNE and plan to revisit the world of Lewis Carroll another time, when they can more properly do it justice.  And when they do, Shannon will be right there with them.

In the meantime, don't miss this chance to see some of WEBS best numbers at TNE!  Not to mention the chance to see Shannon (as her alter ego, Lilith Lore) spin tales that would make your grandmother blush!

The costume is complete!  The last pieces of Shannon's human statue costume have arrived and she'll be making her debut tomorrow evening near Quincy Market and Government Center in downtown, Boston.  

 

This is something of a trial run, but there should be a schedule of some sort posted here in the next week or two.

In the meantime, if you happen to be in the area, please snap some photos and send them to Shannon at sfullard@gmail.com.
