HALLOWEEN HIGHWAYA loving tribute to the gore-spattered highway safety films of bygone days, this never-before staged interactive performance recreates the grisly sights, smells, and sensations of a multi-vehicle freeway pile-up. Staged amid wrecked cars and enhanced by various effects (multimedia and sanguinary) Halloween Highway offers both a cautionary example and a chance to indulge your inner rubbernecking ghoul, visit with the dead and dying, and callously rub elbows or what-have-yous with nurses tending the injured.MAGIC AMBULANCE THEATERFeaturing our beloved mascot ABRAM THE SAFETY APE, RT THE ROBOT TEACHER and the recently enlarged and shamelessly salacious ART OF BLEEDING NURSING STAFF, The Magic Ambulance Theater was recently described in an LA Alternative cover story thusly: "The Art of Bleeding’s principal characters weave chatty stories that are equal parts The Muppet Show, softcore porn and Laurel and Hardy, combining pratfalls and guffaws with eroticism and aggressive, playful confrontation. Nearly naked nurses cavort with puppets --"Abram the Safety Ape" and "RT the Robot Teacher" attempt to lecture on achieving True Safety Consciousness -- and in this fall's shows, the ante is upped considerably... while previous shows have been stellar, these upcoming performances represent Art of Bleeding at a grander, more disturbing scale."
SPECIAL GUESTSSpecial guests include the incomparable comedian/dancer MARGARET CHO, and DANNY SHORAGO of America's favorite lounge-punk-comedy band THE FUXEDOS, the infernally talented stripteuse SATANICA, the macabre puppetry of LOS NINOS DE LA TIERRA, and the monster-masked musicantes of THE TULSA SKULL SWINGERS (rumored to be alter egos of the miscreants behind the acclaimed midnight comedy series, The Tomorrow Show).
Where: Steve Allen Theater, 4773 Hollywood Blvd., Los Angeles.
Tickets: $10.
