Composer/performance artist Jill Tracy (whose live original score to Nosferatu with The Malcontent Orchestra has been a Bay Area October tradition for the last five years) is reviving the glorious Grand Guignol of 1920s Paris. She is leading lady of Welcome to the Hypnodrome, a collection of three classic shockplays performed at the infamous French theatre.
The show is currently running through Nov 20. It's bloody good fun! And historical!
