Manny has been stealing hearts with his upside-down antics across the Pacific Northwest since 2018. He is a full time cast member of Mimosa’s Cabaret in Seattle, where you can catch him hand balancing and hamming it up nearly every Sunday in the drag brunch at the Unicorn/Narwhal bar. This summer you can find him all around the Puget Sound on tour with UpUpUp Crane Truck Circus for the 4th year running.
Manny is the alter ego of Jill Marissa, who has performed internationally in theaters, festivals, cabarets, dance companies, bars, living rooms, parking lots and even a river as an aerialist, dancer, and wildly versatile character for 16 years. She currently coaches small group handstand lessons through New Moon Movement Arts in the Greenwood neighborhood of Seattle.
