Um, no. I’m looking for a more supreme experience.

SO, I SEE THAT COSTUMES ARE ENCOURAGED. ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?

Yes, thanks for asking. Please do dress up and have fun with it, but note the following: masks, toy/replica weapons of any kind (swords, guns, handcuffs, etc) or any other part of a costume that is listed as a prohibited item will not be allowed into the venue. Please also be considerate of other guests at the show, if any part of your costume impedes or blocks the view of other guests you may be asked to remove that part of your costume or asked to relocate.
