This will either be pretty great or pretty terrible.  A purported combination of dance party and immersive multi-media performance, supposedly mashing up electronic dance music and classical references.  The problem will be if the classical references are all clueless parodies of standard rep (in ignorance of how much contemporary classical sounds just like electronic dance music).  But it could be a real trip -- and it won't be boring (I mean, it includes circus acts:  that's never bad!).  If you spring for the expensive ticket, you're promised a more directly interactive experience.  I'm not sure whether or not that's agood thing.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:   Whereas Chez Ma Tante in faraway Greenpoint is (as noted below) named after a Quebecois poutine-and-hot-dog place, UpNorth, right across the street from this venue, actually is one!  You won't leave unsated.  (Many have said the same thing about House of Yes.)
