New Season of Carnivolution Kicks Off at Tiberino Museum May 11

Another season of music, art and mayhem kicks off tonight at the Ellen Powell Tiberino Museum with the sideshow/music mashup Carnivolution. Last season was marred by perils as the Squidling Brothers’ living cartoon with the frown turned upside down and master of ceremonies Jellyboy the Clown spent most of it recuperating from injuries sustained by a fire. But after his explosive return to action and a successful tour throughout Holland, Slovenia, Japan and other parts of the world, the troupe is more united than ever and ready to wow the crowd with plenty of death defying stunts. Meanwhile master of musical ceremonies Playboy Bunny Savage will be on hand to ensure that an eclectic assortment of miscreant minstrels bring their A game, and disturbed puppets will transport you to their perverted puppetland. So be sure to witness the music man Matterz Squidling, sexy sword swallower Betty Bloomerz, vaudevillian ventriloquist Mr. Deadguy, and many more twisted characters get their freak on! Ellen Powell Tiberino Museum, 3819 Hamilton St., 8pm, $10, All Ages – Bill McThrill
