Erica Parker, former company member of Blade Dance Entertainment is delighted to be joining the cast in an expression of art and multiple levels of love and sex. A former professional Latin Ballroom dancer rooted in Hip Hop within her training and performance. She is excited to be a part of a different expression of dance, emotion and theater.
Our Lady of Perpetual PMS is the Patron Saint of Periods. She focuses her rage through wrestling and has been both blessed and cursed w/several womanly superhero powers. She wear a Tiara Of Tampons, which harnesses all of her power-moves. Her secret weapon move is the Toxic Shocker, but trust that the power of PMS is quite deadly in and of itself. To avoid being shot with her custom Tampon Stun Gun, feel free to ply her w/chocolate, painkillers, and a nice dirty martini to wash it all down with.
Lady C is a visual artist, writer, and performer who is working on her M.F.A.
The Mangina is a tragic performer, sculptor and painter. he has performed in almost all of the downtown new york venues and written about internationally by his official biographer Jonathan Ames who portrays him as a heroic wanker. Ames writes about his own obsessive nose picking and jacking off in front of his mother, so it is no wonder the two were destined to be great friends. Mangina has been proudly humiliated by Ames and blames him for the curse of the Mangina which is bestowed to all viewers. So grab your sage and join Mangina for a great show!
