* a brief post about my recent adventures!*

Wedji TuCheeks and her pet cockroach, Fluffy

Just returned from a magical land of make-believe found on the top of a mountain. My new Goblin (Trans-Fae) character, Wedji TuCheeks, was a huge hit at the NY Faerie Festival. The kids were a delight! We played, I bought their affections with goblin money, we taught my giant cockroach, Fluffy, new tricks, and I made new friends and saw old ones that have been missed.

The site of the faire was stunning. there was a large creek/small river running along side, with a little waterfall and everything! I hope to have some pictures loaded shortly.

in the midst of playing with faeries, I took a break to hit Asbury Lanes in NJ. what a sweet venue! the stage is built on the center 4 lanes of a working bowling alley. after the show, people told me that they had never seen anything like our show before. well, cats. we want to come back! and we’re bringing friends! I think the Cheeky Monkey Sideshow would ROCK that venue.

in other news! if you don’t subscribe to Ballycast, you should! it’s all about various sideshow performers, old and new. and I enjoy the interviews every episode. Now imagine how fangirl squee I got when Wayne Kaiser asked me for an interview. ^_^

you can check it out here!

and in case you missed it, I’m was also interviewed for sideshow documentary “Step Right Up“.

This month, I’m doing a bit of travel, some vacation, and even some gigs! I’ll be doing two nights at the Comedy Zone in Crystal City VA. This is a great gig for me as it challenges me to think outside the box. The venue is an upscale restaurant high a top the DoubleTree hotel, overlooking Washington DC (the view is stunning!). this is not the normal, drunken bar crowd, or faire/festival folks. I always love a challenge! Looking forward to it!

Hi- My husband and I went to the Faerie fest in NYS and you were hilarious. We loved watching you interact with the kids and adults alike. You were one of the people we spoke most about afterwards that really made it a really fun day. Thank you so very much for your sense of humor and creativity. I hope you and Fluffy are well and that we will see you again at the next faerie fest.
