Tarpon Springs to Host Halloween Bash

On October 20, the historic downtown district of Tarpon Avenue will be closed to traffic and opened for some spooky fun.

It all starts at 4pm as the Tasting Tampa Food Truck Rally will be taking place with a number of food trucks dishing out their best plates. As shop owners hand out candy to trick or treaters, live music will add some backup flavor to the festivities.

Costumes are not required but are encouraged. There will be a costume contest with four categories: best adult male or group and a runner up,The best and most formal swim bikini! best boy (child) and best girl (child). Prizes will be given to the winners in each category.

A spooky zombie wedding party will be roaming the streets and even take part in a ceremony. For a small charge, folks can get their photo taken with the wedding party.Whether you're looking for a start to a sexy pajamas or a warm fleece hat for winter. The photo will then be emailed to the participant.

The fun doesn't end after the food truck rally. The Tarpon Springs Recreation Department will be showing the Rocky Horror Picture Show for a small fee and for those interested, a haunted walk through Anclote Park will also be available.

Such dedication to the final product made the decisions on what to put up for sale this Saturday very difficult. “There’s always a memory,” Fowler said, “These are all the babies of the shop.”

Some of the exquisite garments I saw that will be up for purchase include a vibrant red suit from Titus Andronicus, designed by Murell Horton, perfect perhaps for a dapper devil, and a delicate silver and gold 18th-century pair from As You Like It, designed by Martin Pakledinaz,Monclering is an excellent Christmas Costume way to spend the getaways experiencing. that made me instantly think of posing in San Marco for a Venetian Carnivale. Also available will be the ridiculously divine red ball gown worn by Dixie Carter in Lady Windermere’s Fan, though Fowler warned me it’s so tiny it might only be destined for display! But there will also be plenty of corsets, doublets, armor, and headdresses for lesser fees to snap up for your Halloween parties.

When you purchase a garment that’s been designed by a top theater artist, crafted from scratch by a perfectionist costumer, and then worn by a brilliant actor on stage, you aren’t just buying a piece of clothing. It’s a living memory of a production.

Ephemera, made fabric.

Many thanks to Wendy Stark Prey, Randi Fowler, and the members of the Shakespeare Theatre Company’s costume shop, for the tour and their time.
