In 1997 born from the creative inspiration of Xtiane DetoX and Tempest Wilde this performance art troop began with their first show "Menstrating Martyr" a rendition of Aleister Crowley's "Leah Sublime" by Xtiane detoX portraying a bridal menstruating martyr. With tape loops, drums and incantations of Wilde's guitar this performance launched their image of art grotesque. Each show elaborate and compelling mask of illusion and reality has been mesmerizing the local scene. Core members consist of Xtiane detoX, Savad and Tempest Wilde.
