Downtown nightclub innovators Barbarella decamped from their Orange Avenue locale presciently ahead of the nightlife clampdown and upped sticks to Orange Blossom Trail. Their latest move, though, is to Winter Park’s ax-throwing joint The Trap, formerly the (chef’s kiss) Booby Trap. Barbarella mainstays like their new-wave weekend nights and goth soiree Memento Mori are back in full swing. They’ve even resurrected the longtime favorite (and BOO winner in its own right) Mac & Cheese. One might say this latest move has really hit the target.
