Le Petit Poisson

Finding Treasure in Every Turn 

Our Petit Poisson was accidentally captured by a fishing boat in the Gulf of Siam. Such an exotic creature, never seen before anywhere. A tiny mermaid! The family kept her as a good luck charm and she grew up playing with their children. A foreigner saw her playing around the boat one day and was entranced. When the family refused to sell her, the pale folks stole her away in the night.

She was smuggled via the Silk Road to France. Le Petit Poisson was taught jumps and tricks to entertain an audience. And eventually sleight of hand to pick the pockets of those who came near. As she came of age, she grew legs. Bored of being in the freak show, she stole clothes and cash, ran off, and swam an ocean away. Cut adrift she ran into Madame Trixie. The Madame thought she would be the perfect lure for the troupe, reeling folks in with a wink and a smile. Once netted, they may find that they ended up on the hook for more than they bargained for. She’s a slippery one!

Our Other Life 

Le Petit Poisson, aka Peach, has been keeping the troupe going by the skin of her teeth.  When not dancing, she is a crazy cat lady and a seamstress of cloth, wood or flesh.
