Maker of Beautiful, Colorful Things
This post was sponsored by Goodwill of the Olympics & Rainier Region. All opinions are mine. I love Halloween.

Took me another 5 years to watch it (in the dark, in a room full of my sorority sisters…not recommended), and I spent the next month…
I was provided with tickets to see Volta in exchange for my review. I received no other compensation. I have been obsessed with Cirque du Soleil since seeing Alegría in 2004, (then Quidam in 2005, Kurios in 2013 and now Volta in 2018). Completely obsessed. I watch videos on YouTube of shows and stunts and…
