How do you know she’s Jewish? Because she’s having a satyr. Ha! Get it? Satyr? Seder? Anyone? Anyone?

Halloween might only come once a year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find other reasons to get in costume.

No, you probably shouldn’t wear your slutty cop outfit to the DMV. No, no wait, check that. Yes you should. Aaaaanyway.

Saturday offers a chance for partygoers to don their finest Renaissance England clothing (we know it’ll be hard for you to settle on just one outfit from your overflowing closet) and take in the second annual Midsummer Night’s Dream party at the Palms pool. The party, themed this year as A Masquerade in the King’s Court is an extension of Hugh Hefner’s bash at the Playboy Mansion. (Although the tragic rumor is that the Hef era is winding down.)

Not only will there be jesters, knights and what we can only assume will be scantily clad and/or body painted ladies in waiting, but guests will arrive through an enchanted forest and receive coins that can be redeemed for indulgences. Although that’ll be boring if they keep “indulgence” in the proper timeframe.

DJs will include Tamara Sky, Eric Cubeechee, Danny Love and The Funkler. The king, who will be provided with a castle for the event, is not expected to spin the turntables. In fact, he’ll probably be frightened and confused by the modern technology and order a knight to attack a Macbook with his sword. Kings are touchy like that. The good news is, he’ll probably replace all that electronica with lute music.
