Acts include performances by Nathan Zoob, Michael Simon, Ivory Weeds and live, interactive readings of Adventuring Princesses, the stories of Princess Dara and Alva, the backstory to a new fairytale that is being compiled and expanded for publication as Adventuring Princesses, Volume 0. At the event, attendees can preview the new illustrations and rewards available for the publication's Kickstarter that launches January 20th, 2014.
