Raks Spooki VI -- A Gothic Belly Dance Event!

[alonewiththemoon]

Wicked and uncanny belly dance performances to entice and chill your soul...  It's the return of Raks Spooki!

Raks Spooki VI:  A Gothic Belly Dance Event
Sunday, October 16, 2011
8pm
Club Oberon, 2 Arrow Street (Harvard Square), Cambridge
Tickets $17, available at http://www.cluboberon.com/

From the jagged and angry to the mournful and elegaic to the silly and sublime, the troupes and soloists of Raks Spooki will explore the many facets of gothic music and culture through the artistry of belly dance.  Dancers--and a few live musicians--from across New England and beyond will join together to haunt and thrill you.  I am extremely pleased this year to present Raks Spooki at Club Oberon, an elegant and atmospheric cabaret-type venue right on the Red Line in Harvard Square and featuring a full bar*.   Proceeds from the event will as always be donated to Women for Women International.  

Featured performers include:
Accaliae
Alizah Afet and Mahira
Ameena
Aria Beth Michaels
Cait Capaldi
Di'Ahna
Katrina
Leilah
Nepenthe
Neylan
Samara
Selcouth and Stephen Carpenter
Shahla Nissa
Sybil and Dr. Druesome
Tempest
Zakiyah
and me, your hostess Badriya

There will be no Raks Spooki in 2012, so get your gothic belly dance fix now to tide you through the times to come...

*Please note that each individual under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult over the age of 18.  Additionally, performances and music may contain, as they say, strong thematic content.
