Education
Bachelor of Arts in Drama with an emphasis on Performance
San Francisco State University 2004
A San Francisco native who writes and performs her own original music as well as fiercing audiences with her drag and performance art pieces in and out of the Bay Area, trixxie carr is on the bridge of the future setting up bungee cords! A fearless musician, playwright and singer by nature, trixxie writes and plays all the instruments on her own songs and performs them as theatrical pieces, mixing her talent for acting and directing together with her original music and experimentalist philosophies regarding current events, religion, politics and the meaning of life. As a faux queen*, miss trixxie carr performs solo or with dancers either lip-syncing or singing live in a mix of comedy-burlesque-performance art. Obsessed with existentialist despair yet a hopeless optimist, trixxie is never afraid to look at the subtext of our words and actions on an intimate and global level, and she attacks with wit and satire the phallacies of blind belief, while still embracing emotion and romanticism, using imagery and metaphor to connect her ideas and reach out to her audiences. Beginning on the infamous 'Trannyshack' stage and making a name for herself lip-syncing as a faux queen, trixxie quickly became known for her voice as a cabaret chanteuse with the talented cast of The Crimson Club, who performed full musical comedy theatre pieces written, performed and composed by their own mad desire to entertain and make a political statement. From 2006-2010 she was a lead singer and co-mash-up-creator for the cover band Smash-Up Derby, who won Best of the Bay twice and travelled all over the US as well as to China serving up fierce hybrids of pop and rock songs before moving on to honor her original musical creations. In Oct. 2009 she debuted her first play, "Hold Me Closer, Tiny Dionysus" and has continued to be an outspoken voice for free speech, avant-art, drag theatre and human rights. She has performed pieces for small events, benefits and private parties as well as the Main Stage at Halloween in the Castro, Folsom Street Fair, SJ PRIDE and more, so size is not an issue - from 1 person to 1000+, trixxie graces the stage and gives her all no matter WHAT! Radio Festivals, Fancy Jazz Lounges, Nightclubs, Cabarets, Burlesque Reviews, Music Events, Parades, Political Events, Festivals in the Forest, Museums, Art Openings, TV, Radio, Voice-Overs - if you can dream it, this talented girl can make it entertaining!!!
*a born female who performs as a drag queen
