About this project

Ties & Tassels Productions (Candice Bree and Jenna Dalgety) have been raising funds for over a year in order to launch Queerpocalypse; a gender-performance spectacular of international delight! We've had monthly drag/burlesque variety shows, and have already been able to raise a good amount of funds to secure our venue. Queerpocalypse will happen on August 20th, 2011 at the Abbey Pub in Chicago, IL. We are now looking for Kickstarter supporters to help us match our efforts and raise an additional $1500 to help us pay for staffing our event (DJ, door, lights/sound, photographer/videographer), supporting our performers, and for advertising materials. We would also like to add in some extras such as making Queerpocalypse T-shirts, booking the Glitter Guts photo team for our audience to enjoy and some other perks to thank our performers. We have a fabulous line-up of amazing performers for the evening (drag, burlesque, circus acts, dance, music, comedy, & spoken word). If you haven't been able to make it to one of our Ties & Tassels shows, here's your chance to help us! Every dollar helps, and we thank you for your generosity!!!
