“THIS IS THE SKIN OF A STRIPPER, BELLA!”

An Evening of Dark Fantasy, High Camp & Otherworldly Delights

Saturday, October 24, 2026

Applications close on FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18TH

“This Is the Skin of a Stripper, Bella!” is a dark fantasy and camp-inspired student showcase with a loving nod to the Twilight franchise.

While Twilight is at the heart of our inspiration, your act does not need to be Twilight-themed! We welcome acts inspired by dark fantasy, supernatural creatures, paranormal romance, horror, magic, monsters, camp, and the strange and otherworldly, (especially considering the showcase is right before Halloween!).

A Note About Act Selection

We want our showcases to create opportunities for as many members of our community as possible. When reviewing applications for this showcase, priority consideration will be given to:

• Performers who did not participate in our previous student showcase

• Acts that are directly inspired by Twilight or the Twilight universe

As previously stated, you do not need to submit a Twilight-themed act to apply, however, prioritizing Twilight-inspired acts helps us keep it at the heart of the show.
