10 P.M. Rounding out the evening will be DJ DAVID BOBZIEN!!! and dance music.
Although this is what is scheduled to date, there will most certainly be additional performances thrown in Dada-style. Such as random bellydance perfromance by Allison Prater and Acro Yoga demos at the whim of the artistes... Check the board in the el-cortez lobby each day for additions to the sensory buffet that is the Trocadero this year. There will be a Trocadero Board in the lobby of the El Cortez that will announce the most recent additions. All donations collected will be used to cover expenses at the Trocadero Room.
