The Bohemian Masquerade Ball is the flamboyant vanguard for a whole sub-culture of junkyard hero’s, gentleman punks, flaneur’s and neo-vaudeville performers. For the first time ever, the Boho Ball has left the warm bosom of Melbourne, where it has become a must attend date on the social calendar, and gone on tour – a tour which kicks off on the 24th of September – this Friday!
For those of you who have never experienced the magic of the Ball…….check out the webisodes of the tour so far….. http://www.facebook.com/thebohoball#!/thebohoball?v=app_2392950137
A boutique festival, running for over 3 years, recognised as a grand carnival of underground culture. It plays host to a boiling-pot of independent music, extreme circus and performative installations. Sideshow, burlesque, cabaret acts and rovers are thread between the headline bands to create a seamless event, overwhelming the audience and co-creating something that has an explosive effect and little comparison.
A feature length documentary is to screen on SBS early next year.
