Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! (We've got ourselves a dance emergency...)

A lusty month of humpdays with Bianca Cabrerrrrrrrrra!
An event so epic it's gonna take four Wednesdays to tell the whole story...

Studio Gracia's 2011 Artist in Residence Bianca Cabrera is your fearless leader into a cabaret world of contemporary dance, cover bands, showgirls, cowgirls, boygirls, dancing, drinking and feasting. Think cartoony, campy and sexy. Think silly pop culture met with seriously resonant, die hard dance.
Then stop thinking and get yourself to the shows.

If you see one, you've only seen one. Special guests exclusive to each night!
Dj'd dance party to follow the show, cash bar all night.

5.11.11 - Camp Songs.
5.18.11 - May I be Frank?
5.25.11 - Dance off! Hands On!
