Diamond Daggers Masquerade Ball October 24, 2008

The barrier between audience and art is being eroded at the Diamond Daggers’ monthly cabaret events. This “high-art in a club environment” makes fine art and professional theatre accessible to a diverse audience, while encouraging aesthetes to explore SOMA and experience the mingling of glitter and grit. The season of crass Halloween is smoothed and refined with this elegant and lavish ode to the opulence and mystery of the veiled season. Combining the style, fashion, and design of local performance and visual artists, Diamond Daggers Masquerade Ball provides the perfect mixed environment for flirtation, art, entertainment, fashion, and sexy frolic for all of the Bay Area’s queer and slyly twisted folk.

The DIAMOND DAGGERS MASQUERADE BALL will feature a complete environment, designed to engage all the senses, including living mannequins from Hayes Valley’s Dark Garden Unique Corsetry, live portraiture from renowned artists Suzanne Rachel Forbes, sponsorship from the Mission’s ADS Hats, and environmental film projections from director Sushe Sprado.
