Anita Cookie
(Performer)
Anita Cookie is dedicated to bringing quality burlesque to the masses, and she hopes to do this by always finding new and exciting ways to showcase jokes as well as jiggling bosoms. She is a character with the curves of Marilyn Monroe, the helium pipes of Betty Boop and the wit of Mae West. The Cookie drinks like Dean Martin, is usually involved in antics reminiscent of Lucille Ball, and in most cases her glitzy costumes seem to some how inevitably find there way on to the floor. She producesAnita's Underground, a risque live game show, monthly at Under St. Marks. She is also one half of the Drunk n' Dirty Duo.

Her dream is to one day hit the road with the Clams Casino Rock and Soul Revue, with stops at the Burt Reynolds Dinner Theater in Jupiter, Florida and the Andy Williams Theater in Branson, Missouri. Clams is also the co-producer and one of the stars of the Gameshow Speakeasy, which presents completely unauthorized live-on-stage version of the classic game show, plus Jump The Shark, Bump and Grindhouse, Smells Like Tease Spirit, The Shore Thing (with Pinchbottom in Asbury Park, NJ, and many other burlesque shows.
