In an alternative, hipster-brooklyn universe, the Merry Prankster bus has crashed into a traveling Carnival tent and the electric koolaid has been spread around — healing all wounds. For the 10th Annual FreaKKshow, we mash together hippy & circus themed freakdom with maximal psychedelia bathed in smokey black-lit euphoria. Yes, history does repeat itself but now with higher tech toys, a small army of costume fanatics and the participatory absurdity of the extended Burning Man community.
