FrightFest

 

Fremont Street Experience will unveil the ultimate Oktoberfest and Halloween combined street party with its first “OktoberFrightFest,” a three-week festival beginning Tuesday, October 13 and continuing through Saturday, October 31.

The nineteen day festival will feature nightly entertainment by master illusionist Jan Rouven at the 1st Street Stage, a live musical revue with Frank & The Steins at the 3rd Street Stage, and extreme juggling and dancing act       from NBC’s America’s Got Talent Mario & Jenny at Main Street.  A special Halloween light and sound show themed to “Time Warp” and “Monster Mash” will be displayed nightly on Viva Vision throughout the event.

Jan Rouven, billed as “The Man With Nine Lives,” is an international master illusionist from Germany who has won top awards including the International Magician’s Society “2007 Entertainer of the Year,” an award previously held by magic greats David Copperfield and Siegfried & Roy. Rouven brings thrills and breathtaking risks to Fremont Street Experience with his larger-than-life acts and stage props, including the mind-blowing “Drill of Death” seven days a week on the 1st Street Stage at 8:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.

“Frank & The Steins” will feature a cast of dancers, singers, and musicians performing classic Halloween songs including “Psycho Killers,” “Spooky,” “Time Warp,” and “Ghostbusters” at the 3rd Street Stage Tuesdays through Saturdays at 8:30, 9:30 and 10:30 p.m.

“Sexy and Dangerous Mario & Jenny,” from NBC’s hit show America’s Got Talent, will bring their racy and daring act to OktoberFrightFest.  Their performance includes acrobatic stunts, dancing and extreme pyrotechnics.  Mario & Jenny will perform on the Haunted Bus Stage at Main Street, Thursdays-Mondays at 8:30, 9:30 and 10:30 p.m.
