Picture a circus show that combines the sort of flamboyant, post-apocalyptic outfits you’d see in the film Mad Max, vaudeville-style theatrics and bass heavy EDM. That last part sounds a little out of place, but watch a YouTube video or two of Lucent Dossier Experience, and it’s fitting for the highflying freakshow that unfolds. The Los Angeles troupe performs aerial acrobatics, fire twirling and neotribal dance with costumes that would win Best of Show at a steam punk convention, or maybe Burning Man (you know, I’m not really sure). 117 R Street, http://lucentdossier.com.
