MAGGIE (Venom von Detta)
Maggie grew up on the east coast studying ballet, jazz and neurotic timeliness. She pursued a double major in Communications and Theater despite childhood aspirations of becoming a vampire or a camel. After university she relocated to London for a job as radio producer. Having had her fill of Bubble & Squeak, Maggie returned to the states and headed west to California. Upon arriving in the golden state, she set her ballet slippers aside for the barefoot glory of modern dance. She has since trained in various modern techniques with Khamla Somphanh, Randee Paufve, Reginald Ray Savage and also studied aerial arts at the San Francisco Circus Center. Maggie has enjoyed a vast array of performance opportunities, including being a dance artist with Savage Jazz Dance Company, dancing for Amanda Palmer at the Fire Arts Festival, and modeling for Dark Garden. She is currently a dancer with Vau de Vire Society, fulfilling all of her wildest, fishnet-laden dreams, as well as a regular performer and go-go dancer extraordinaire for San Francisco’s biggest, baddest burlesque show, Hubba Hubba Revue. A member of Sisters of Honk, you might find her in full klown gear wreaking lovely havoc on the city or offering up more go-go-madness on stage with electro klown-fi kings, Gooferman. And we musn’t forget her zombie persona with Living Dead Girlz. Maggie is thrilled to be dancing for F’risqué and looks forward to glittering on a stage near you. She is also a personal trainer, teaches fitness classes, and firmly believes that sweat is the new black.
