Burden of Poof is the story of Poofy du Vey, a bundle of nerves with big dreams and even bigger fears. Poofy’s got a lot to say, if she could only remember what that was…

Burden of Poof made its world and U.S. premieres, respectively, at the 2006 Winnipeg and Philadelphia Fringe Festivals. While Poofy has since made appearances in cabarets across the country—including the New York Downtown Clown Revue and Tricklock’s Revolutions ’07 Reptilian Lounge—Burden of Poof will stretch its legs after a long winter’s rest before hitting the road for the 2007 Winnipeg and Edmonton Fringe Festivals, among other world renowned festivals.
