Danny Whitson - Magician
Born and raised in Oak Ridge, TN, Danny Whitson has succeeded at bringing live entertainment to his beloved town! Traveling throughout the Southeastern region he has been able to voice his comedic opinions on family, work and life in general. You may have seen him previously at Side Splitters, The Comedy Catch, Zanies, The Laughing Skull, The Comedy Zone, Atlanta Magic Night or in Oak Ridge at the Historic Grove Theater.
Before his comedic venture Danny performed as a magician. He is locally known for his magic shows, performing for the Lavender Festival and Taste of Anderson County annually. Recently on podcasts Dead Beat Radio with Lance Adams and People in my Neighborhood with Mitch Wheeler Danny talks about the number of private and corporate shows hes done throughout Tennessee. Not to mention fairs and festivals in Anderson County, Sevier County, Jefferson County and Knox County.
Currently, Danny incorporates both talents and brings them to the stage for an entertaining adventure that is unforgettable and extremely enjoyable.
Brattie Von Beaverhausen - Burlesque
Brattie Von Beaverhausen, found a home for her unique irreverence in the Knoxvegas burlesque community.
She got her leather booted feet wet at the Follies Girls and then from there sashayed herself into production with Ooh Ooh Review. Then, after graduating from the Salome Cabaret Burlesque Academy, Brattie kicked into high gear as one of the founding members of the Hellcat Hotties.
In addition to all of that, Ms. Von Beaverhausen is also a walking, talking, advocate for body positivity, the fetish community, and how to rebel with class.
Whether producing, choreographing or performing, her routines are known across state boundaries as a specialized mixture of sauciness, naughtiness, and just a lil bit of sass.
Brattie comes by her name honestly - and she will make you unsure if you are laughing hard...or...well, you know. Winks "She's just trash."
Doug McCaughan - Juggler
Doug The Juggler McCaughan spreads joy, laughter, and amazement with feats of balance and gravity defying manipulation of balls, clubs, chickens, rings, torches, knives, plates, bruised fruit, and anything else compelled to fly through the air.
Doug has been juggling since he was 13 years old and boy his arms are tired. He performs on stage, street performing, and to add atmosphere to events. Doug has juggled for the Mayor, entertained to help good causes, performed at festivals and other live venues, volunteers for Zoo Knoxvilles Boo at the Zoo, was a founding member of an improv comedy troop, and juggled for film.
Doug brings an interactive experience, reminiscent of Vaudeville, with high energy and audience participation guaranteed generate smiles.
Ella Minnope - Burlesque and Aerial Performer
