Kelly “Texas” Holly is the resident troublemaking clown with Barbary Coast Amusements. And as the holder of this office (see photo to your left) she will tower on stage at SOMArts this coming September 26th (a Naughty Sunday) at Noon.
She has been singing and dancing for as long as she can remember (but since she often knocks back boilermakers with the Clownteuse, her memory might only go back to when she woke up this morning). After graduating from the University of North Texas with a Bachelor of Arts in dance (his name was Dwight, and he soon thereafter married) she ran away and infiltrated the Clown Conservatory at San Francisco's Circus Center, from whence she graduated Magna Cum Loud in 2005. She has since performed regularly (she eats lots of fiber) with Bay Area favorites such as Lunatique Fantastique, Miracle Theater, The Pickle Circus, and Jump Theater. Texas "Holly" Kelly also teaches things to youths in West Oakland at the Prescott Circus Theater.
Texas recently found her long-lost sibling, Felicity Hesed. The two perform as twin sisters, Betty and Marigold and were last seen chasing men (sometimes bachelors) around the Bay Area (rubber chickens in hand).
Holly "Kelly" Texas will appear on Wednesday, September 22 at 8:00 pm with Circus Finelli Revue at Stagewerx (Sutter and Powell) in San Francisco.
