Last time I was in Coney for a convergence of Sideshow and Circus folk, there was an earthquake.
What shenanigans will we get this time?

It's World Circus Day!!!

I have been scrolling through performance photos trying to pick the best one to go with this post, and I discovered there's too many.
Instead, I'm posting a photo from one of the most recent shows I was in.
I was asked to represent Furies Funtime Variety Sideshow at Richmond Fringe Festival Cabaret.
We won Audience Choice 💜

I've been performing for a long time, and I feel like I've only recently found somewhat of a footing in a world that brings me so much inspiration and satisfaction.
It's hard job. I've met and worked with awful people, sustained many injuries, exhausted myself to burnout with a long recovery journey, I've pushed through emotional depletion to fulfill obligations.
However, I've also worked with the most amazing supportive beings, I've traveled to other countries, experienced the most beautiful unique moments, become part of a community, and people have shared that my art has inspired them.
It's just so kewl.
I'm going to keep doing my best to be better. I can't wait to see what experiences I get to share next year.

Later this year, I’ll be performing and presenting as the Keynote Speaker at Poe’s Magic Conference in Baltimore!

This is one of my favorite events—it’s all about bizarre, storytelling-focused magic, which is very much my vibe.

I’m especially honored to be recognized in this way. And even more thrilled that this year’s lineup is intentionally spotlighting more LGBTQ+ artists and women in magic. That kind of representation on stage really matters.

Can’t wait to share space with such a powerful and creative group.

SUNDAY, APRIL 13
DOUBLE FEMME FEATURE:
Furies Funtime Vareity Sideshow
with special guest
Guilty Pleasure: A Cumming Out Story

Furies Funtime Vareity Sideshow: In Greek myth, the Furies embody womanly rage and consequences. Now, make it fun! We are three badass women from three different states, combining our skills and rage in one delightful variety show. Sideshow and bellydance, live music and comedy, mythic grace and modern rage. This is a silly, sturdy variety show showcasing excellent women artists on our own terms. WE decide how we display our bodies and share our voices. We are powerful, we are pissed, we love collaborating, and we are determined to bring everyone else cathartic fun. Featuring the artistry of Madame Onça, Claire Dima, and Krystal Younglove!

To start off the shows
Guilty Pleasure: A Cumming Out Story
“A hilarious, heartfelt solo show about learning how to love yourself...in more ways than one.
Join queer comedian Amanda Melhuish on their messy journey to master masturbation — and finally orgasm for the first time.
