Performer Bios:

❤ Her Vajesty Dixie De La Tour is a Story, Communication and Performance Coach, a Podcaster, Impresario, an IRL Enthusiast, but most of all, a Community builder. She is also the Founder, Curator & Host of the Award-winning storytelling series, Bawdy Storytelling (called “The Moth for Pervs” by the LA Weekly, and “The Original Sex and Storytelling series” by Playgirl) that’s been lauded for its transformational, relatable, and empowering performances.

This story-loving southerner is passionate about storytelling’s ability to keep people safe, reduce social anxiety and build connection. She has performed and presented at Podcast Movement, SketchFest, the San Francisco Jewish Community Center, The Naked Truth, Porchlight, Muni Diaries, Memoir Spool, Fireside Storytelling and many other local storytelling shows. In addition to story coaching and public speaking coaching (for TEDx, Women in Technology, and her own Bawdy Storytelling & BawdySlam series), Dixie offers both one-on-one private story coaching and teaches ‘Storytelling for Job Seekers’ to help you ace that big job interview. Plus she’s been Sainted by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (“Saint Kiss & Make You Tell”) for her work to reduce stigma and eliminate shame, and in her free time, she enjoys being a Muppet.

Her beloved live grassroots stage performance series, Bawdy Storytelling, is celebrating its 20th Anniversary this year!, and the top 2% Bawdy Storytelling podcast has hundreds of 5 star reviews, almost 300 episodes and millions of downloads - plus its won ‘Best Of’s from Oprah Magazine, Forbes, Mashable, Buzzfeed, GQ Magazine, Marie Claire, Uproxx, Women’s Health, Bustle, Cosmopolitan, Esquire Magazine and more.

❤ Kat Robichaud prowls around the stage- a hellcat unleashed, furious to have been confined in southern 90s suburbia stasis. With various wigs and rock warrior whimsy, she shrieks catharsis that at once stops and rushes the blood of anyone within earshot of her siren song. Part Janis, part Bette, part Mama Cass- Robichaud writes murder ballads, broadway pop songs about anxiety, and neo-wave rock and roll on anything from alien sex to gaslighting puppeteers. Existing in many forms- sometimes host of her hit musical variety show Misfit Cabaret, sometimes drag artist twirling her pearls in the spotlight of gay sex clubs, Robichaud feels most at home among her fellow queerdos, rattling off current hyperfixations and sipping whiskey with the stunning underground Bay Area artists who survived the gorging promises of corporations in late-stage capitolism. She's a hell of a show woman and has had 20 years of stage time to prove it. It doesn't matter if she's singing in a southern chain chicken joint, a 1,500 seat theater in Times Square, a painted plywood speakeasy, or in front of 15 million people watching her on The Voice- she will get your attention and hold it like she'll die if she chooses to let go. And you hope she never will. Tickets for Kat Robichaud’s Misfit Cabaret’s epic shows are available at krmisfitcabaret.com.
