Theatre Bizarre + DNFF Present 'The Rite of the Black Fire'
COSTUMES ARE MANDATORY A rite in black fire. Shadow, sound, and spirit converge as the night deepens into something darker, more devout.
TIME & LOCATION
Oct 30, 2026, 7:00 PM
El Club, 4114 Vernor Hwy, Detroit
LIMITED TICKETS AVAILABLE
The ritual deepens through shadow-driven performance, surreal cinema, live scoring, experimental sound, and visions drawn from horror, myth, and the avant-garde. Independent filmmakers, immersive performers, and live acts converge in a critically curated environment where fire, movement, and image unfold as part of an ongoing ceremonial descent.
Feature Films + Performances
The Spectral Score
A gathering of cinematic apparitions from the Severin archive, reawakened through live performance by David J (Bauhaus). As image and sound converge, forgotten visions drift once more through the darkness—transformed by music, memory, and the uncanny.
The Undead / An Exorcism of Relevance
Neither concert nor film, The Undead exists between forms—a transmedia ritual by Detroit's own QUEENFX, where moving image, live performance, and spectral narrative collide in real time.
