We've designed a weekend overflowing with Edwardian-themed events to satisfy your creative pallet...phenomenal music, theatrical circus, Gorey-centric art, turn of the century oddities and of course you donning your best Edwardian attire.

By leaps and bounds, this ever expanding yearly collaboration with Rosin Coven is Vau de Vire Society's most treasured.  Each year a different Edward Gorey illustration and story is used as inspiration for a Vau de Vire stage interpretation and Rosin Coven score.  This year's macabre Gorey tale is,  "The Tuning Fork"...enjoy !

I don't think there is..but you could snoop around the website to see. Generally I think they just do the wristband for 21+. You should go!

That makes sense. I am DYING to go, but I don't really have it in my budget this month. :( I for sure will be there next year though. :)
