Classic Characters

The process has been different for each of us, and certainly, is and has been an opportunity to explore our connections to the ancestors,
our commitment to our medium of artistic expression.
The brilliance of creating story from dream, vision, musings, inspiration and work manifest here.
In addition, the group of people continues to find ways of supporting each other in being just as fabulous as our alter-egos, just as daring as the names we choose as aliases and just as righteous as the folks that walked this road of success before us.
We are making history as we rewrite it.
These characters are us, then.
The progression has been drastic from one show to another and it is with gratitude that we remain diligent to keeping the material fresh and fun for ourselves and those brave enough to travel to us on a performance night.
New characters just ahead.
