Feral Faucette (they/them) is a proudly fat, Queer, nonbinary, Philadelphia based performer, costumer, and educator.

Born and raised locally, Feral has been performing in our city for well over a decade but quickly dove in and became a splashing success, in both the local and even international burlesque scene, after graduating PBA’s Act Development class in March of 2024.

Their costuming and choreography have been featured in performances across stages and productions including Haus of Them, Glorify, Pepper's Playhouse, Snatcherella 3000, Kings Dominion, Boyfriend Material, The Naughty Jawn, Clown Cave, God's Automatic Body, PBA Student Showcases and many more.

Feral Faucette specializes in creating choreography, costumes, and pasties for fellow fat, plus size, trans and gender nonconforming performers. Feral is deeply inspired by preserving the craft of costuming by passing this knowledge to fellow performers. They can't wait to help PBA students create the burlesque acts of their dreams!
