The Second Ever Storyville Fashion Show will be held on Saturday, March 21, at the Manship Theatre in downtown Baton Rouge. Tickets are online at the Manship Theatre (click here) and available for purchase at Storyville Baton Rouge. Make sure to get your tickets soon because last year's show sold out. All proceeds go to the Capital Area Alliance for the Homeless. Go here to see a couple videos from last year's show -- Roar and My Way.
On February 8, a short movie was filmed in the Storyville Baton Rouge shop. During the filming, Gabriel Harvey went Christian Bale-crazy when the Director of Photography stepped on the movie set. Watch this video to see what happened next. "The Shop", a short film by Lawles Bourque, TJ Guillot and Alex Faucheux will debut on March 21 at the Storyville Fashion Show.

Special thanks to Metro Three for letting us have a trial period in their amazing shop.
