Cabaret Comedienne
Known as a creative force of nature, pint-size powerhouse and “Reigning Queen of Burlesque”-- I have been making avant-garde comedy shows since 1998.
Cheeky, clever, creative and full of surprises, my work blends my visual arts degree and physical comedy training with acrobatics, burlesque, dance, audience participation and puppetry. I strive for eye-popping visuals, smart dumb jokes and celebratory striptease. I like to play bold, funny female characters with a rich mix of grit, passion, pathos and quirky flaws.
My greatest goal is to bring WONDER and DELIGHT to the world with PASSION and HEART.
For more of my past adventures, go watch the feature length documentary “Us Naked: Trixie and Monkey” which has won Best Documentary at the Coney Island and DocFeed Film Festivals in the Netherlands.

"Trixie & Monkey were individually and collectively powerful and delicate, flirtatious and coy, feminine and masculine, dominant and submissive. Their acrobatics were remarkable and one couldn’t help but murmur “how the hell…?” when Trixie, a pintsized vixen, was capable of holding a hairy monkey-man upside-down using her ankles." -The Empire Times (Australia)
