Creating a solo show from ancestral memory, comedy, healing, ritual, and truth has been one of the most vulnerable and meaningful creative experiences of my life. While overwhelming at times, I’m so happy I took the leap!

In San Diego and getting ready for five shows in three days! I can now say I have an award winning show! ✨

Feeling blessed to have been at Frigid NYC, Orlando Fringe and now here while the full version of River City Stories ( I play MC in Orchid) plays at the Lancaster Fringe Festival, a 48 hr film challenge Im a part of shows at Midtown Cinema this wknd “Rex Sent Me” and two of the teams I play with were at Happy Valley Improv Festival 🎭🎉🎉🎉 and LoS CoMpLiCaDoS, PA’s first latino improv team was accepted to Swear Jar Jamboree in Philly and the Baltimore Improv Festival for later this summer! I was also thrilled to do a staged reading of HairStory and the Popcorn Hat Players in Español, Bella Durmiente!

When did my life become so filled with performing?

Grateful the Universe brought me to Central PA and that my successful online biz slowed down enough for me to be able to do this part of who i am. Yes, Ive added art, flair and storytelling to my business but in the last few years I’ve focused on it like no other time in my life!
Thankful that long standing health challenges have improved so I have the energy, capacity and stamina to do this.

Folks, if you know people in San Diego or even LA please share my show. Life is moving fast and faster… I dont know if i’ll be back with this show.

San Diego this wknd.
Tampa in June.
Harrisburg in July.

Thanks for all your love and support. Being an artist isnt easy, much less a grown one with work/home/responsibilities and a tight budget, yet here I am.

Mucho amor,
Vanessa

San Diego… I’m coming.

After sold-out shows in NYC, I continue to Orlando then San Diego! Perra P**a Loca Bruja is moving through 4-5 cities this year and I need your help spreading the word!

This is more than a show.
It’s ceremony. It’s comedy. It’s truth-telling.

Four archetypes.
Four doorways.
One woman reclaiming her voice through ancestry, memory, and fire.

“Raw, powerful, and unapologetically real.”
“A performance that stays with you.”

If you’ve ever been called too much, too emotional, too loud…
this space was made for you.

From Curses to Crowns: Healing the Archetypes of Bitch, W***e, Crazy & Witch

Inspired by the transformational themes of Perra P**a Loca Bruja, this one-hour healing circle invites participants into a courageous and compassionate exploration of the labels historically used to silence, shame, and control powerful expression, especially in women and marginalized bodies.

Across cultures and generations, the archetypes of the Bitch, the W***e, the Crazy One, and the Witch have carried both wound and wisdom.

In this sacred space, we reclaim their deeper meaning.

Through guided reflection, sharing stories, gentle ritual, and expressive practices rooted in improvisation and embodiment, participants will be invited to:

• Reclaim desire, voice, intuition, and emotional truth
• Explore the “wild feminine” as creativity, instinct, and leadership
• Release inherited narratives of exile, judgment, or invisibility
• Honor the ancestral strength that lives in the body
• Step into the Crown — a symbol of sovereignty, dignity, and self-trust

Each archetype becomes a doorway:

The Bitch: boundaries, truth-telling, self-protection

The W***e m: life force, pleasure, worth beyond purity narratives

The Crazy One: sensitivity, vision, emotional intelligence

The Witch: intuition, healing, connection to unseen wisdom

This circle is not about fixing or labeling. It is about integration.
Turning what was once used as a curse into a source of power.

Participants leave feeling grounded, witnessed, creatively activated, and more connected to their inner authority.

Duration: 60 minutes
Format: Guided circle + archetypal exploration + ritual + integration

PERRA. P**A. LOCA. BRUJA.
The names meant to silence us… can become the names that set us free.

I’m bringing my raw, hilarious, deeply personal solo show to Carlisle for one powerful night. This is a theatrical ritual of storytelling, comedy, ancestral memory, and reclamation, where shame becomes voice and voice becomes power.

Through four archetypes — The Bitch, The Seductress, and The Witch, I trace lineage, identity, survival, and the courage it takes to live unapologetically.

If you’ve ever been called “too much”…
If you’ve ever felt like an outsider…
If you’re ready to laugh, feel, and celebrate who you are, this show is for you.

📍 Carlisle Theatre
40 W High St, Carlisle, PA
🗓 Thursday, March 19
⏰ 7 PM

Come witness. Come feel. Come reclaim.

🔥 NEW SEGMENT SNEAK PEEK — PERRA

What happens when you are told to be humble… and still get put down?

And when you dare to stand up, lead your own life, take up space, you are called names anyway?

Damned if you do. Damned if you don’t.

In Perra P**a Loca Bruja, I honor my paternal abuela, Hortencia Bazán — La Mamina.

A woman made of magic and survival. She spoke of duendes, burned incense to cleanse the air, and carried a quiet power the world tried to shame out of her.
She was called perra de la calle for being an orphan and for being strong. Cabecita negra for being Indigenous and mixed.

Judged for her visions. Judged for her strength.

Yet she worked, loved, raised a family, crossed oceans, and built a life from nothing but her hands and imagination.

This segment is fierce, funny, and deeply human.

It asks: How many of us were taught to work hard that people and keep our heads down to survive ?

How many of us are still learning to love ourselves out loud?

The Perra is not the insult.

She is the survivor. The truth-teller. The woman who refuses to disappear.

Come witness the story.
Come remember your own strength.

The tour begins in Carlisle! 🔥
I’m thrilled to launch the Perra P**a Loca Bruja: A Latina’s Reclamation Journey tour at the beautiful Carlisle Theatre on Thursday, March 19 at 7:00 PM.

This one-woman show is bold, funny, and deeply personal exploring four archetypes many women have been called at some point in their lives: Perra. P**a. Loca. Bruja. Or Bitch, w***e, madwoman and witch.

Through storytelling, humor, and ritual, I weave together my ancestry honoring our beginnings in Africa through Indigenous Argentina, Spain and New York, reclaiming the stories we inherit and transforming them into power.

Carlisle is the first stop of the tour before the show heads to the NYC Fringe Festival, Orlando Fringe, and San Diego Fringe.
A huge thank you to the partners helping bring this evening to life:

✨ Players on High- deep thanks!
✨ The Latino Connection- gracias gracias! Latino Connection
