An Empire Is Born

Copenhaguen, 2010.
Pantheonic Empire did it again.
On the occasion of Freaky Friday's Grotesque Burlesque Party, Pantheonic Empire came up with interactive performances that made peoples go crazy... blood on the dancefloor.  Literally (-fake blood that is-Nessa and I came up with this old gipsy lady strip-tease number.  We took off layer after layer of maternity clothing, only to reveal two blood thirsty vampirellas in leopard print bathing suits).


Coming from London, Paris and New York, we all reunited in Copenhaguen Sout Harbour's cultural pride, Illutron.  This amazing art space granted an optimal creative ambiance for us to engineer the Burlesque Party mayhem.  We wanted to make the audience laugh at us and at themselves, and finally blur that line between performer and spectator to all come together on the dancefloor.  And, fok, we succeeded!

Costumes were -impeccably- tailored by Carley Hague and Isobel Webster.

Coming soon to your hometown, bewaaaaaaaaare!
you'll be entertained to death.
