ANNIE CHERRY 

IS DECADENT AND DELICIOUS...



Annie was born at high noon in the springtime, near the mighty, muddy Missouri River. She grew up dancing, singing, and making people laugh. As a young woman, she fell prey to the lure of a belly dancer's swaying hips, inspiring her to learn how to shake her own moneymaker. The earthy drumbeats evolved into the thrill of the jazz band and the bump 'n' grind, and Annie's career moved onto the burlesque stage. Annie's love for the shimmy and shake remains strong, as she explores other forms of self-expression, from pantomime to street performing, and film work. 

Ms. Cherry met Mr. Vulgaris one smoky night, backstage at a former brothel. He wore a derby. She, a chapeau made of real fruit. It was love. The duo have gone on to co-create theatrical experiences of many stripes. They receive much joy from collaborating with many other fine theatrical professionals, artists, and musicians.

Annie's greatest wish is to continue creating life-affirming, joyful, immersive theatrical experiences for adults and children, alike.
