Two white non-binary folks playfully grasp hands and lean away from each other in front of a pair of brightly rainbow painted doors. They are both wearing overalls and playfully surprised expressions. Above them, yellow text reads: “The Amazing Adventures of 2NBs - A Queer Musical Circus Adventure”. Below the 2 figures, more yellow text reads: “April 12 4:30-5:15 pm, Chicago Circus and Performing Arts Festival, Circus Shorts Part 1, The Atria - 3146 W Chicago, Tickets: www.CCPAF.org “.

Today. It’s not the end all be all, but the start of a movement. Shop small and local. No big box, no gas.

Wild, in the midst of this heavy, heartbreaking week, to receive some incredibly good, affirming news and feedback about my journey as a circus artist. ❤️ my circus community at Aloft and all the badass queerdos out there making weird, bendy art out of their bodies.

Emergency timeline cleanse.
Three cats lay curled up with each other on a fluffy red blanket. One is large, black and fluffy, one is black and short haired, and one is a shorthair tabby.

Welp…looks like I’ll be spending this winter dodging the apocalypse and dreaming up some queer musical circus magic.

This Saturday, I’m dancing with Volume Dance Company to close out the annual Covers for Cover benefit for Brave Space Alliance at Lincoln Hall.

It’s a 15 minute technicolor fever dream spectacle of joy, glitter and queer feminist pride. Tickets here or at the door: lh-st.com/shows/12-07-...

Welp…guess I’m over here now.

Protect Trans Kids.
Free Palestine.
Black Lives Matter.

Now point me in the direction of all the snarky music/sports shit-takes, Chicago peeps, circus stuff and queer art/music/culture content.
