TRUTH & DARE: What a Night!

I was wrong.

The spirit of adventure is NOT endangered!


But before we get to that, let's go back to the beginning . . .

David Fletcher
, responsible for all the photos you see here, was also on piano for the vocalists: beautiful Sarah S. who also sings at UnWined and Symphony Space, Ivy Omere a well-respected, classical English actress, and Tracie Franklin, who's recently been touring with Hairspray. Their lounge-style foreplay laid the foundation for the Wild and Lusty Adventure that would become TRUTH & DARE.

Alida's more saucy than sweet and ready for A Salt and Battery. . .


Chris #2 : Smart, sassy, and classy as Tea and Sympathy

Povs can't get any more social, even at The Stanton . . .

Who's up for a dare? Magdalena Fox is, and this is all I'll reveal of her Burlesque act:

Shhh... Let us eat cake.

Chocolate cake provided by Jennifer Sterling (ingredients by Westerly Natural Market)-- and Chocolate Cake City comedy: together, a deadly combination.

Then Makana reminds me how in 6th grade, he made me laugh so hard, chocolate cake came out of my nose. What am I scratching...?


Now he still makes people laugh, but with his slack key guitar, he mesmerizes too:



The poets were so steamy, the lens fogged up and left no record. But we caught the finale, NICO Labo's (center) fashion show:



Ah! the audience! My favorite act of the night... both the daring and the curious
