Twin Peaks Dance Party
Recommended
David Lynch's cult TV series Twin Peaks was arguably the best thing that ever happened to television: The haunted mystique of the show's caricatural misty Pacific Northwest logging town proved to be the perfect setting for the velvety, poisonous allure of surrealist Lynchian noir. This pairing continues to intoxicate and inspire—just a few months ago experimental noise group Xiu Xiu released an album covering the show's ominous soundtrack. Tonight Black Lodge Burlesque will take over Holocene for a blowout party celebrating Twin Peaks' two-season run, with on-theme costume contests, miraculous cherry pie, music from DJ Dark Entries, drag by Anastasia Euthanasia, and burlesque by Baby Le'Strange, Eva D'Luscious, and Jolene. The series' long-awaited third season reboot won't be released until next year, but perhaps this moonlit visit to the Black Lodge can tide us over. CIARA DOLAN
