Beef Pattie

Instructor
Worker bee by day, and a bratty clown night based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Beef Pattie is a black mixed with black and a splash of sass performer who gives viewers an experience no one wants to miss but only a few can handle. What started as a way to connect with others, burlesque and draglesque has shifted to form of expression that allows them to connect and celebrate their body while moving through their emotions (both the good and bad).
