SEE EVENT DETAILS
Join Epic Immersive, Gregangelo's Velocity Arts & Entertainment, and Gatsby Entertainment as we preview the immersive world of Bohemia!, a tale of the can-can clubs of Belle Epoque Paris!

We're gearing up for a very special new world of immersive experiences in Spring of 2020, and want to begin sharing pieces of our world with you right away!

Come join us this January:

Friday, January 17th and Saturday, January 18th for Just $5!
Saturday, January 25th for Just $15!
Friday, January 31st and Saturday, February 1st for Just $25!
You'll be treated to can-can dances, magic acts, French mime and clowning, and interactive experiences as we test-drive new material for our upcoming immersive worlds, including Bohemia!

DRESS CODE:

We're not going to turn anyone away, but if you want to dress to impress, the era is Paris circa 1900. There are some modern touches and mash-ups in the upcoming experience, so feel free to blend those in. And if you don't feel like dressing up, that's fine, too -- you will still have a wonderful time! Cocktail attire is strongly encouraged.


Doors will open at 8:00pm, with acts from 8:30pm to 10:30pm. In between, there will be dancing, and you can groove the night away until midnight. Plus, check out special themed cocktails by the new cocktail artisans at Hotel Whitcomb.


Featuring magic by Jade:

Jade took the male-dominated world of magic by storm in 1990, when she became the first woman to win the International Brotherhood of Magicians' coveted Gold Medal of Magic, a prize awarded only a handful of times in the competition's long history.

Jade has performed and received multiple awards for her performances here and abroad, including the Mandrake Award from France as well as the "Female Magician of the Year" award from the International Magicians Society in Las Vegas.

Fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English, Jade has performed on the stages of variety theaters around the world, on luxury cruise lines, and in casino revue shows in Atlantic City, Lake Tahoe, Las Vegas, Malaysia, and Australia. She has also delighted audiences in numerous appearances on international and American television, including CBS' Late Late Show and CW Network's Penn & Teller: Fool Us!

Jade's command performance for the Royal Family of Monaco at the Princess Grace Theater was one of her many career highlights.


Featuring the clowning of Michelle Musser:

At the age of 21, Michelle auditioned for Ringing Brothers and Barnum and Bailey

Circus on a dare. She was offered a contract immediately and three days later she boarded the Ringling Circus Train. After two years of traveling with the show, she decided to continue her education in clowning and mime and attended the Clown Conservatory in San Francisco where she graduated in 2009. Michelle has since then traveled the world performing. She has worked with Culpepper and Merriweather Circus, Circus World Museum, Sirkus Finlandia and Awaji Art Circus.


featuring the dancers of Katie's Dance Studio:

Many of Katie's students have gone on to dance professionally throughout the world. Recent alumni, Samuel Black and Dallas McMurraycurrently perform with the Mark Morris Dance Group.

Katie started dancing at the age of three and has performed professionally since the age of fourteen. Katie has been featured in musicals, corporate and professional shows with well known performers. She continues to choreograph professional shows and musical theater.
