Help Bring Maureen's Hollywood Fringe Show to Life!
Donation protected
I’m thrilled to share that I’ve officially booked my show for the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2025!
After 11 years of pouring my p*ssy onto the stage — through parody, pathos, and power vocals — I’m bringing something brand new, chaotic, hilarious, glamorous and heartfelt to the festival.
But here's the T divas:
Creating a show at this level takes money. This is the longest run of shows I've ever produced. Lot's of opportunities and buzz can manifest if I do it up right. Awards, extensions, overseas productions, remounting the show in Chicago, Edinburgh Fringe, etc.
I’m self-producing this piece from scratch — writing, costuming, promoting, and performing — and I need your help to make it happen. And sell it tf out.
So why am I crowd funding now?
Every single show I have produced has been funded by well...me.
I've learned a lot and worked incredibly hard to share my art and spread joy.
Because I have such a loyal and beautiful audience in Chicago (YOU!) I was able to put up money for shows knowing that I would be able sell enough tickets to compensate my team and pay for the venue, costumes, props, Ubers, graphics, promotion, video production, etc.
I've invested thousands of dollars and every penny was worth it.
This has proved to be challenging to replicate in Los Angeles as everything is twice as expensive. I spent 11 years building my following in Chicago and have had to start from scratch in LA.
Hollywood Fringe is a HUGE opportunity to do it right and build my audience for future shows!
So I want to fuck it up. In the best way.
For the first time ever I am doing a run of FIVE SHOWS!
I want the production value to BE FIERCE.
Your donation will help cover:
- Theater rental for 7 nights, 5 nights of shows, tech rehearsal and dress rehearsal
- Costumes, wigs, props, rhinestones — Good Drag is EXPENSIVE
- Rehearsal space (a.k.a. not the Jackhammer basement)
- Marketing/promo so people actually show up - Including an Ad in the Fringe guide.
- Compensation for my team: Director, accompanist, etc.
- Video production
- Documentation by a real camera person, not just my friend with an iPhone and hand tremors.
If you’ve ever laughed at one of my parodies, cried at one of my torch songs, or thought “damn, that queen’s got range,” now’s your chance to help me serve it to the masses.
Donate if you can. Share if you’re broke. Or do both if you’re a multitasking legend.
- ALL DONOR'S WILL RECEIVE A FREE LIVESTREAM LINK TO ONE OF THE PERFORMANCES
All my love, I sincerely appreciate any support.
