Xquisite Corpse

Conceived and Directed by Lilia Deering

Produced by The Ensemble

October 9th – 31st | Base Camp Studios


You’ve got BIG plans for Halloween this year. Xquisite Corpse is coming — a surreal immersive playground for monsters and freaks. We’re cooking up a feast of wonderfully odd events, and we’re inviting you to come costumed, masked, in your drag or your drip to revel in an immersive space that’s somewhere between a fever dream and a nightmare.

Xquisite Corpse is open for a whole calendar of special events and for Base Camp’s Studio’s Gallery Hours:

Friday 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM

Saturday 12:00 PM – 4:00 PM

While our gallery space is open to all ages, Xquisite Corpse events are 21+
