Hello guys!

Couple of shows coming up in June: I’m in the Atlanta Fringe Festival with Officer Scott: Too Much Isn’t Enough from June 6-8th. Tickets are here if you are in Atlanta.

I’ve also got a show with The Bisque for The Brigid Alliance at Young Ethel’s on Saturday June 15th at 7pm. One drink minimum - gonna be great standups and improv, all for a good cause.

There’ll probably be more that come up, so follow me on socials if you haven’t. Instagram is where I make show announcements and stuff :)

K, thanks bye!

Hi all,

The blog this month is just a list of shows coming up :)

I’m going to be in LA for a few days, doing a clown show with Sloan Brettholtz and Michael Galligan BANANA x OFFICER SCOTT - The Yard Theater at 7pm on Friday April 26th. I’m pumped for it, so if you are in LA, get your tickets here.

Back in NYC, I’ve got an improv show at Young Ethel’s (for free) on Monday April 29th - check it out.

Also, Officer Scott is back at Brooklyn Art Haus on May 3rd and 4th - we often sell out, so if you haven’t seen it yet - it’s that last chance before we take it on the road this summer.

Work has been wildly busy (in a good way) and I’ve been doing lots of projects that I’ll share soon.

Love ya, gotta go <3

Hi team,

March has been absolutely wild! Zipline is busier than ever - which is great! I was also in some cool shows.

One cool one was I’ll Have The Bisque at Caveat - where we raised $627.60 for The Brigid Alliance. We are so grateful to everyone who supported, both in NYC and on the livestream!

Another cool show was Officer Scott: Too Much Is Never Enough - a weird, joyful clown show I’m so grateful to be a part of. Sloan Brettholtz plays Officer Scott and she wrote a beautiful, silly, insane play. We’re doing some Fringe Festivals, both here and abroad, so I’ll keep you posted about those!

I’ve got some pictures including my moment rockin’ out as “Officer Mom”.

Honestly, I’m so busy at work because a million Broadway shows are opening, that’s all I have time to write about this month. I hope everyone is well!

Big hugs,

D

It’s Aquarius season, babies!

And I'm in my power, as all of my friends who are into astrology keep telling me. As a result of being in my power, I’m gonna do what I do every month: tell you to come see my shows.

Improv with the Bisque: The Letdown: Tuesday 2/27 - 8pm Halyard’s in Brooklyn - no cover, indie showcase hosted by cool people!

Princess Bleach and Friends: Monday 3/4 - 8pm Young Ethel’s in Brooklyn - no cover again, and we are guests for cool improv folks!

BIG ONE: I’ll Have the Bisque at Caveat - Tuesday 3/12 - 9:30pm on the Lower East Side - Join improv troupe The Bisque and guest comedians Alison Leiby (Oh God, A Show About Abortion, Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) and Ali Claton (Y’all Gay Podcast) for a 75 minute comedy show to raise money for abortion access. Ticket sales go towards The Brigid Alliance, an organization that helps support those who must travel for abortion care. Early bird tickets are only $8 and we are LIVESTREAMING!! If you are out of town, you can support me and the Brigid Alliance! DOOO ITTTTTT!

Another big one: Officer Scott: Too Much Isn't Enough sold out last month at Brooklyn Art Haus so we got a new run on March 14-16. It’s a really good, really funny, really heartfelt show, and I'm proud to be a part of it. Tickets are here - it’s likely gonna sell out again, so I urge you to buy them in advance.

Also, "Ducksession" NWIN's parody of Succession that I DP'd, was selected for Toronto Sketch Fest! Huge deal!!

Wow, I’m like, busy doing acting and comedy again! I’m in my power!

Finally, are you a big huge nerd? One of my great joys is telling a Deadwood meets Dungeons and Dragons story every Sunday, so if you want to watch - it’s pretty fun.

Cool, see ya later - enjoy Aquarius season cuties!
