Elysium’s October 30th Freaky Friday Show

It was absolutely phantasmic! Spooktacular, freakalicious… Freaky Friday! The best Friday of the year cause it falls close enough to Halloween to be a great chance for the freaks to come out and play. Or in this case, dance and totally entertain the best audience in Second Life! And in The Empire Room at Copperhead Road, Elysium Cabaret had it all. Sexy witches, freaks of all manner, and some of the creepiest scary monsters ever. Take a look at the pics! We had plenty of tricks and even more treats.

Sending a shout out to our Paul, who is in New Orleans without power at this time after Hurricane Zeta slammed into Louisiana and tore through America’s south-eastern states. Our thoughts are with all of the people who are suffering through the destruction Zeta has wrought. Over 2 million people without power… we are thinking of you and sending you our hope your power will be back on as soon as possible. People pulling together helping one another, as we wait for The Great One, our beloved Paul to come back online. I dread doing shows without him. Paul Woodrunner is the glue that holds Elysium Cabaret together. Thank you Wiz and Morganna for the extra help in getting the show on stage this week.

Update: Paul has electricity again, still waiting on internet. Fingers crossed it is soon! Hang in there Paul, but at least you have lights and can cook and turn on the heater!

In other news, a certain R. obot went berserk backstage BEFORE the show even started! The Notorious R was caught IN THE ACT brandishing a sledgehammer and dismantling Babypea’s rez box! She even poked her tongue out in a disdainful taunt during the attack, as evidenced in the third photo below. Security was called in and the rabid robot was rebooted and brought under control. Dancers backstage who witnessed the carnage are being treated for trauma. However, charges have not been pressed, as it was discovered the Dismantler was not in her right mind due to mistaking a bottle of bleach for oil during the pre-show warmup. Experts say ingesting bleach can short a robot’s circuits and cause erratic behaviour.

Now let’s take a look at pics from the show, courtesy R Dismantled, with our thanks! And to see more of R’s legendary pictures, take a look at her Flicker: https://www.flickr.com/photos/isfullofcrap/albums/72157681703250966

Gods and Monsters – Jessica Lange

Absolutely divine Hailie and some freaky friends perform my favourite version of this incredible song on the most amazing stage, complete with surprises and special effects!

==========================================
Mikiko
KOVACS THE DEVIL YOU KNOW

Mikiko shows us that spooky and sexy have more in common that ‘s’ and ‘y’! Isn’t she gorgeous, and that set is breath-taking! I do love this song as well, have never heard it before.

==========================================
Britt

==========================================
Misha
P!nk – Just Like Fire

I do love this dance. Misha really went to the outer limits with little surprises, special effects, love the costume, this one was freaktastic!

==========================================
Taema
With Britt and Hailie
Hocus Pocus Medley

Taema and her girls made quite the entrance in this, and have you ever seen such sexeh witches before! Scene change, detailed sets, and delish choreo, wouldn’t you love to baste in these gals’ cauldrons!

==========================================
Sarah
With Ginty, R, and Seb
OZZY OSBOURNE – “No More Tears”

Sarah always goes the extra mile on her detailed sets with hidden messages and is the QUEEN of animesh. She delivered with plus-points on this one. I really love the choreo on this, and just LOVE Ozzy, especially this song! I just HAD to add an extra pic cause… OZZY! *bows deeply*

==========================================
Bianka
Cristina Aguilera – Haunted House

If anyone can make wicked enticing, it’s Bianka, as she conjured a spell and cast it on the entire audience with this performance… uber sexy, classy, and mesmerising, and what a totally marvellous set!

Babypea

Well… someone has to bring the ugly and no one does ugly better than the Pea… and this dance was grotesque but SO FUN! Yes, I’m talking about myself in the third person.

Elysium’s October 23rd 2020 Show

What a fun show this was! Everyone brought great acts, a lot of surprises, and a debut! We all had a great time, with thanks to the imaginations of some very talented people. And we raise our glasses to the dedication of our dancers. Much thanks to Paul, Morganna, and Wiz for all the hard work off the stage. And a big thanks to my own loveable bear, DJ Gunner. Our biggest thanks of all to our audience for coming out and helping us welcome in the weekend with an entertaining show followed by dancing everyone together. Tonight’s show was so relaxing. Let’s take a look at some pictures from it.

But first, we did have one disturbing incident during our crowd dances. It seems a certain R. obot had a bit too much to drink and passed out. Either that, or was playing with dirty cards and got caught and knocked out? Or worse? Don’t worry, we called in the electrician who has transported the Mechanical One to an Automatron workshop to get those circuits firing again, so the Notorious R should be back in the fray soon enough.

We give thanks to R Dismantled for the pics of tonight’s show! Except for the crowd dances, which were taken by some vagrant. Follow this trail to see more of R’s photos: https://www.flickr.com/photos/isfullofcrap/albums/72157681703250966

Welcome to the weekend!!

==========================================
Babypea
With Gunner
Etta James – Got My Mojo Working

Oh boy! On the Bayou, tryin’ to get my man’s mind off his fishin’! Got my mojo workin’ but sure didn’t work on him!

==========================================
Seb
With Jo, Nadi, Paul, Wiz
Zombie Apocolypse

Zombies in paradise! A big surprise, clever twist on the zombie theme… not what you’d expect! Such a fun act and super funny song!

==========================================
Melli
With Cael
Neil Diamond – Thank The Lord For The Nighttime

Melli’s debut and WOW what a performance! She knocked our socks off, with heaps of effects and a flawless performance… scene changes, animesh, great costumes and choreo. She and Cael turned into bats at the end! It was darling! WELCOME ABOARD MELLI! Please make more dances!

==========================================
Nadi
Cederick Schoeman – One Last Dream

Our beautiful, sweet Nadi, the sweetest person in all of Second Life, showed us her inner demon… yet in her Nadi-way, her demon was also so sweet. A deeply-touching performance, beautiful song. Not your usual demoness!

==========================================
Jo
Dance of Longing – from Mao’s Last Dancer – Christopher Gordon

Gawd this was gorgeous. So stylish and elegant, this was ART! Jo was utter breathtaking in this performance. It is one I hope to see again. Maginficient!

==========================================
Eva
With Cowgrl, Nadi, Zena, Misha, Si
Creep Bedlam

Eva has a twisted something inside her, and it showed in this dance… and we loved it! This performance was so metaphoric and was one of those dances that makes you ponder. Beautiful yet sad, entrancing yet disturbing. This one is a masterpiece.

==========================================
Dear
Paloma Faith – Warrior

Dear always brings the pretty. This was lovely and I love the colour use in this set. Great use of particles and such beautiful choreography.

==========================================
Eva

With Everyone!

Now, Bianka had been wrangled to do the crowd dances, but she managed to escape through the air-conditioning vents right before the show. We do have bounty hunters on her trail. If you have any information that can lead to us recapturing her, please report it to an Elysium Admin. There could be a reward in it for you. Eva stepped up to fill in for the AWOL Bianka. I do not have her song names, but they were all related to GAMBLING! WOOT!

Alexis and Prestor

It’s THE WIZ!

Elysium’s October 16th 2020 Show

What a great night! In The Empire Room at Copperhead Road, where the Emperor himself Paul Woodrunner and his lovely Empress Morganna welcomed arriving guests for another fantastic performance by Elysium Cabaret! The Maestro Gunner von Phoenix had the orchestra performing splendidly as Master of the Robes Wiz attended details behind the royal curtain. By the way, it is a little-known fact the Master of the Robes is also Keeper of the Queen’s Swans. Apparently, Her Majesty has accumulated quite the flock of the delicate birds. And did you know that a group of swans is called a ballet, bevy, drift, herd, regatta, or whiteness? There is really no such thing as a flock of swans!

Our night proved most exciting! We had great songs, brilliant sets, divine costumes and a plethora of special effects. Hailie gave us a neon mind-trip, Adam danced in a place I found most comforting… a morgue… and then Ness took us on a fantasy journey through a chalk painting. Kyser brought the house down as heavy metal collided with medieval, then Sarah led us in a delightfully disturbing metaphoric meditation. This was followed by Aryana casting her voodoo upon us, and finally Britt and her girls got dirty. Thank you to all our visionary choreographers and dedicated dancers for sharing your fine talent on the Big Stage! Everything was going so well, until Babypea invited us all back to her house for a BBQ. And well, talk about trailer trash… that woman is the epitome of tacky. And she KNOWS it and she’s PROUD of it! She does it on purpose! I think she simply enjoys thumbing her nose at pretention. And she clearly takes great pleasure in upsetting the delicate sensibilities of the royalty.

Right when we thought it was safe to come out from backstage… you’ll never guess what happened!! A certain R. obot has regressed into former behaviour patterns! The Dismantled One had come so far… actually progressing from vandal to Head of Security… alas! Our hidden cameras caught the notorious R hiding in Babypea’s trailer, armed with a CHAINSAW! This called for immediate evacuation of the venue, as we had to call in a S.W.A.T. team to bring the situation under control. We are thankful to report no casualties. R has been sent for a tuneup… top up the oil, replace a few gaskets… should be good as new! Next week’s show will test the efforts.

Now on to some pics from the show. And of course:

WELCOME TO THE WEEKEND!

Elysium’s October 10th 2020 Show

The end of another week of hard work and busy details. So happy it is finally FRIDAY! What a night of fantastic performances from some of Second Life’s great creative minds. We had dramatic fantasy, a touch of the apocalypse, steps back in time to Follies and the legendary CanCan, passion in the sands, epic vampires, and beautiful fairies. We finished up all dancing together to some super fun tunes. Let’s look at some pics from the show, with thanks to our talented choreographers, dedicated dancers, and hard-working behind-the-scenes staff plus… of course… our cherished audience!

HUGE THANKS to R Dismantled for these amazing pics from the show!

Elysium Cabaret’s October 2nd 2020 Show

Another Friday night, and we arrived at The Empire Room on Copperhead Road with anticipation, excited to see what creative visions would be shared with us on the Big Stage. Paul and Morganna graciously welcomed arriving guests with champagne as DJ Gunner warmed up the audience with tunes that got us all bouncing in our seats. The Wiz wrangled choreographers and dancers backstage, making sure makeup was on, costumes adjusted, and everyone was ready to share their performances with our cherished guests. Hailie opened the show with a flawless dance that was equally breath-taking and heart-breaking. Misha got us all pumped up, raising our glasses to Pink! Then the Wiz offered us a rare and utterly precious drag performance that was absolutely delightful and made me feel happy. Britt enchanted us with an exotic belly dance that was intoxicating, such lovelies! Ness never disappoints, again dazzling us with her ingenuity, she is so original and imaginative! Sarah’s presentation was deeply touching, one that really makes a person think and ponder. Then VooDoo had to ruin everything by coming out with her pack of hell-raising rebels and tearing the place apart. But Eva made up for it, dancing everyone in the entire venue on a mesmerizing set, super fun dances. A great time had by all! Hey, let’s do this again next week! Say, Friday at 6pm SLT? Oh, and….

WELCOME TO THE WEEKEND!!

In other news, a certain Dismantled R. obot has yet AGAIN been promoted… WOW what a journey our fave R. obot has made, from vandal to Security to DJ and now to PHOTOGRAPHER! Well, R has always been a photographer. But the blog photos are courtesy R Dismantled, used with permission, thanks and appreciation! Unless otherwise stated. Thank you R!
