Don't Miss the Next Catbaret! 🐱🎭

There’s always a new Catbaret show coming up—whether in person in NYC or virtually! Grab your tickets at CatbaretShow.com for a night of cat-themed comedy, music, and burlesque!

--

In this week’s episode, Gemma sits down with Fortune Cookie—a NYC burlesque performer, acrobat and producer of Books & Burlesque, the literary-meets-burly show celebrating underrepresented authors and stellar performers. Fortune shares how Chinese dance and circus arts fuel her storytelling onstage, why a little improvisation goes a long way, and how she builds joyful community through art.

Plus, meet her ragdoll duo Donut and Koffee—gym mascot, stroller pros and occasional “assistants” to her costume-making adventures.
