Happy Friday the 13th! Today we are pleased to announce the first video from Halloween 2015 ...the entire 15-minute front show! For Halloween this year, we were inspired by the uniquely beautiful and creative Mexican traditions of Dia de los Muertos for our own Day of the Dead celebration! See a "live" skeleton mariachi band sing and play for their ghostly ancestors in a joyous graveyard celebration lit by hundreds of flickering candles below a glowing harvest moon! Designed for children of all ages, this show will bring a smile to your face and warmth to your heart. Not only was the show running all night for my big party on October 24th, but we were able to advertise and run it 4 more nights including Halloween night, which was great fun for us to have so many others come watch our show! I'm still working on coordinating a LOT of photos and even more video in the Halloween 2015 section, so keep watching Britta Blvd for more details coming soon! Hope everyone...

The Halloween 2015 Day of the Dead front show is running 4 nights closing on November 1st!    Full details here! Stay tuned to  Britta Blvd for more details soon!
