HURLEYVILLE, NY — This month, the Hurleyville Performing Arts Centre (HPAC) invites all “to enter a world of dark decadence and surreal spectacle” with Carlirium: A Haunted Carnival Cabaret on Friday, October 10, at 8 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom. 

Featuring Diiiotima Arts, Carlirium is not your average burlesque. “This high-art, theatrically macabre production combines burlesque, circus sideshows, daring stunts and spine-tingling performances in a lush, immersive setting,” HPAC said. 

“This is a one-of-a-kind experience that pushes the boundaries of performance art,” said Lourdesa Hunt, director of development at HPAC. “Carlirium is a feast for the senses, blending the eerie and the elegant in a way that will leave audiences spellbound.”

HPAC is located at 219 Main St. Tickets cost $30, and are available now at www.HPACNY.org. No tickets will be sold at the door. Entry is restricted to 18 and older. Cash bar and bar bites available.
