Cabaret Solidarite is a series of fund raising shows for a variety of causes. They feature local drag and burlesque artists.
I was asked to photographed their November 1st, 2022 show. The theme of the show was "Day of the Dead", and the make up and costumes of a number of participants reflect the theme of this Mexican holiday.
