“I loved working with Naughty Menagerie and would gladly host one of your shows again! My favorite thing about working with you is that you treat everyone like a professional, whether they've been performing for 5 years or 5 minutes. Everyone in your shows is treated like an expert in their craft. Each production feels polished and professional without being pretentious and exclusionary. Different bodies, skin tones, and experiences all come together in the cast and in the audience to create an experience to remember.”

“Working with Naughty Menagerie was pure, immaculate joy!

With Naughty Menagerie, you are part of something wonderful, sparkly, and beautiful.”

“As an out-of-town performer, the Naughty Menagerie welcomed me with open arms. I've participated in two of Naughty Menagerie's shows, Fire & Ice and Pearls & Poison, and both were unforgettable experiences! The Naughty Menagerie creates a welcoming and nurturing space for performers to express themselves.”
