“‘Meat Show in Space’ is a standout example of the festival’s signature blend of absurdity.

Performer Alice Gillette stars as a trash-collecting astronaut in a cracked helmet, desperate for the stars to remember her as more than space junk.

The show is staged in male drag and dripping with satire.”

“To speak with Alice Gillette was a true honor and a pleasure.

Not only is she a local creative, a group who are often overlooked within society as a whole, but she’s funny (duh), remarkably intelligent, and a force to be reckoned with both inside and outside of the alt-comedy scene and the world of clown.”

— Out Front Magazine

“Clowns are making a comeback — especially at this week’s Denver Fringe Festival. ‘Clown now isn't necessarily ‘big shoes, squirting flower,’ said Alice Gillette, who will be performing as Meat Show.

‘It's more of poking holes into authority.’”

— Colorado Public Radio

“When [Gillette] takes the stage at Rise Comedy, she is completely transformed, wearing a pointy ginger beard that juts over a teal tutu around her neck.

A skullcap makes it appear that she is half bald, and a chestplate mimicking a six-pack flaps around her torso with each exaggerated stride. She bites into a lemon and gnaws its carcass out.”

“Gillette [is] startling yet goofy.”
