About
A professional dancer, actor, mime, singer, and Juicy Joints fitness instructor, Janet combines these skills for engaging both as a stilt-dancer. She designs and creates all her costumes. Inventor Kim David Hall aides in sculpting feet, making the mermaid tail move, and the stilts themselves. For more of a sense of MY HUMOR and HOW I TRAIN: RougeMusic/knee-too
What to expect
In fantastical costumes, stilt-dancer Janet will really dance and engage adults and children, getting people to dance or happily take part in a game of not telling anyone that she's there! She'll sit on shoulders, have children run through her legs, rub bald heads with joy, blow bubbles, use small puppets to calm and delight young ones. She'll preen, lay chocolate eggs, jump rope, swirl her 6' streamer arms, or pulse an umbrella like a heart. She'll remember you from earlier in the event and repeat that joke the two of you are in on. She'll ask you to help her find her enormous sheep that she fell asleep counting or sing a song.
