You can take the girl out of the Circus, but you can’t take the Circus out of the girl! Clowns are sacred beings, they take reality and flip it upside down and force you to reconsider what you might think is true and real while they shock, amaze, amuse, delight, and yes, sometimes scare you! I have always been fascinated by my dear friends and fellow creative citizens of the sideshow community. Back in the 90s when I was a young half man half woman glass eating fist masticating bald youth, I toured the nation with multiple groups, like Circus Rediculous, and the Bindleftiff Family Roadshow, and to be honest, I found their way of life a little too difficult to maintain as I continued my own creative path , but I never lost my love for the incredible passion and artistry of the people who use their mind, bodies, and spirits to delight their audiences into reconsidering reality as they once knew it.

Last night‘s show at Wizbang Theater Wizbang! with the Squidling Brothers Squidling Brothers did not disappoint! I was honored to join them for the kickoff to their big Midwestern tour. They’re headed for Michigan today, and will end up in Pittsburgh at a show I’m producing with amoeba knievel amoeba knievel at Dr. Tumblety’s Time-Inspired Specialty Shop Conjure Bar & Stage 🎩 Dr. Tumblety’s®️ Conjure Bar & Stage on June 28. If they are coming to a town near you, I strongly suggest you enjoy these artists at the top of their game! They are disturbing blessing on all who come to bear witness on their bizarre beauty!

Omgoddess (h/t to for that lovely turn of phrase) lookee here now! captured my attempt to keep up with the glory of athletic humanity on stage with the Queen Diva - you best to believa - Herself, Thee one and only at - this was truly one of the lost powerful and inspiring moments of my life. Forever grateful to all the wonderful organizers and volunteers who made this happen. This joy will resonate in my soul and power my activism for a very long time. Thank you.

I’m so grateful to all the organizers and volunteers for going above and beyond again to produce such a joyful and affirming event. Pittsburgh Pride is made up of incredible volunteers, community organizers, and it’s grown to become such an incredible celebration of Q***r love and freedom! I started the day marching with We Rock Workshop on the ! Most of the day I was busy shepherding the students with my co teachers, so I didn’t get too many selfies but here are the few I got!!

Sometimes dreams do come true. After an exceptionally incredible day working with my students and fellow educators of who marched in the march in morning and then performed on the Community Stage at the absolutely beautiful - the organizers and volunteers truly out did themselves. I’ll post more later with all my selfies - but then - a dream I barely dared to dream came true. I was blessed to join 20 of my fellow superfans and disciples on the MainStage at Pittsburgh Pride!! The Queen Diva ruled her stage and had us bumping, grinding, splitting and shaking. I joined the celebration of twerking and I got up there and I did my very very best. I think I broke something. My twerkus maximus is groaning and moaning. I have been told a wonderful artist named has the footage of my attempts. But I think when I finally go to heaven, I’ll remember this. Because sometimes, dreams really do come true. Thank you Big Freedia, Thank you Pittsburgh Pride. We may have been rained out yesterday, but we got the biggest rainbow of them all on today!
