Upcoming Shows!

Man oh Man!
It is time again for another installment of "When-Does-Erica-Sleep?" aka--My Upcoming Shows. If you have been wondering why you haven't seen me in ages, well--wonder no more!

SINema Smutty Comedy and Comic Smut
This show is a riot to be a part of. We will be screening cheesy 70s Boobie and Sexploitation films, while playing games, drinking, and making snarky (but hilarious!) commentaries. Featuring Shaun Himmerick, Jared Logan, Andrea Swanson, and myself. Chosen as a 'Best Bet' by MetroMix in today's (1/26/06) print editions--so pick up a Red Eye or a Trib!

Dido, Queen of Carthage
This show just amazes me. The next of the Camenae shows, Dido is filled to the gills with an amazing cast and crew--it is truly going to be spectacular. Honestly, I am honored to be a part of the show. This is classic drama with a new spin, done only as the Camenae can. I will be playing Mercury, winged messenger of the gods.

Don't Spit the Water
Hooray for DSTW! We've been going strong for over a year now, and I couldn't be more proud or happy! 2006 is an all new year for us, with new bits and comedians, but with the tried and true DSTW humor. Fuzzy and I will be doing new characters this Saturday, January 28th, so don't miss it! Also, premiering soon will be an all new musical and dance explosion featuring the DSTW cast, choreographed by Jeff Gandy and myself. So hilarious.

Belmont Burlesque Review
This is one of my favorite shows in Chicago. Dancing, singing, comedy, magic, boobies--what's not to love? Fuzzy and I every now and again perform our style of dirty comedy, plus I have recently had the honor of choreographing a few dances for the Belmont Bombshells (including a brand spanking new intro dance premiering Feb 25th!)
