Performance Submission Form-

Come perform at The Forbidden Bazaar!

Are you intrigued by the Bazaar performers, and are asking yourself “Could I ever do that”?

If you are interested in becoming a performer and someday sharing the stage with the amazing folks you see at The Forbidden Bazaar (and beyond!), let’s talk about getting you started on your circus journey.
Justice and Angela own and operate a circus school for adults- Dragons Lair Performing Arts, right here in Minneapolis. We have students from all sorts of backgrounds, you don’t need any sort of experience to get started! It’s entirely possible to become a performer as an adult with no background whatsoever- Angela started training aerial at 33 with no prior performing arts or dance experience at all!
Click the link and check out the Dragons Lair Website, sign up for a Beginner class or an Intro Series, and see what you can do- you might just surprise yourself!

Our Story:

The concept of The Forbidden Bazaar has grown over the past decade, but the original idea was conceived by Justice Draconis, while he was residing in Australia to visit family and study performing arts.
Added to the Bazaar team in 2017- Angela Higgins (Hazmat Circus), originally a silent cast member and aerial artist- in 2018 became the voice of the show, taking over as Emcee and Host.
The monthly kinky circus show with a rotating cast has undergone many changes, but holds true to the original goal. To provide a safe and encouraging environment to express one’s self, to urge the spooky inclined folks to come out of their shells and create themed costumes, to showcase new and veteran local entertainment talent, and to give art/craft vendors a place to sell their wares to a diverse crowd of people.
We believe our patrons make the show what it is and we love having you all on stage with us, we thank you from the bottom of our little coal black hearts for supporting this weird show.
We couldn’t (and wouldn’t) do it without you-
After all…
You ARE The Forbidden Bazaar!
