Hey there you beautiful Darlings,
It’s flarpin’ OCTOBER, aka POPtober ‘round these parts. Because popcorn! We serve it! We love it! We live for it! We’ve got a LOT going on including a new DynaPop™ topping! Her name is “Potion Notions” and her style is… dangerous. “So call ur coven and pop on over to ur favorite haunt, witches.” <—this is the copy our advertising team asked us to use. 🤷♀️ (The topping is basically a lot of creepy gummy candies and edible glitter. TERRIFYINGLY themey!) Sidebar: Got a great picture of DynaPop™ from a past Dynasty visit? Send it to us and maybe we'll give you a special treat!
Last week was lovely for many different reasons. Great shows! Great livestreams! Jamie had the retreat of a lifetime at Esalen in Big Sur! Vanessa had a great acupuncture session! (More on these transformative experiences later, and probably forever!) Vanessa and Missy took a u-haul to an auction house and got things both necessary and completely unnecessary! (Bits for the souvenir shop! A hundred year old tin of lard? [<—— great insult, must remember for next time we’re in a fight with a rotund centurian] Missy found a live cat and is keeping it. Sidebar: is this your cat? If so Missy will give it back to you. But it’s probably not, because we think Missy may ACTUALLY be the birthmother and she just blocked some stuff out. Got a great picture of your cat eating DynaPop™? Send it to us and maybe we'll give you a special treat! And now as we put on our glasses to squint at the future ahead, where we see only lovely things. Future’s so bright we’re going to need transitional bi-focals.

WEDNESDAY, 7:30PM: Cake & Violence Do you feel like you sometimes… can’t feel anything? It’s easy to get so caught up in the woes of the world and the woes of our selves, that it’s… well, numbing. And we can’t have that, now can we? Cake & Violence is a food fetish fever dream of a solo show brought to you by writer & New Yorker cartoonist, NATALIE GRIFFEN (Great Job Nat.) Watch her deliver a bunch of monologues whilst smashing a big ol’ cake, all in an effort to get you to FEEL something. It’s comedic, it’s dramatic, it’s about not only reconnecting to your body, but to every body. Produced by GABRIELLA WALL
🤡 🖤 THURSDAY AND FRIDAY at 7:30PM two evenings with… PUDDLES PITY PARTY, the 7-foot sad clown whose golden voice is comparable to rock legends like Tom Jones and Freddie Mercury. He’s performed sold out shows all over the globe including The Kennedy Center in D.C., San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts, London’s Soho Theatre, and a residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and now he’s at DYNASTY baby! His one-of-a-kind “textured voice laced with melancholy” (NY Times) has been hailed as “operatic” (Boston Globe) and his show both “life-affirming” (Herald Scotland) and “hysterically funny” (LA Weekly).

PS: Booker Mary also has a beautiful cat and it would be really unfair to overlook that just because Missy found a cat this week. Mary’s cat is NOT going to be given to anyone because Mary’s cat is Mary’s cat and Mary is her cat’s as well. They belong to each other. It’s a real “Who rescued who?” situation.
