A Comedy Experience Like Nothing Else at Your Faire
30 minutes. One outhouse. Zero dignity. Maximum laughs.
“Why poop alone when you can poop with a friend?”
Crowds Stop Walking
Bathroom humor is universal. Puns are timeless. Chaos is irresistible.
30+ Years of Faire Experience
Clown school. Stunt work. Joust shows. And yes — extensive time in portable restrooms.
Nothing Else Like It at Faire
Part variety show, part outhouse dispute. Entirely impossible to explain until you see it.
The Show
One Outhouse. Two Egos. Thirty Minutes of Chaos.
It starts simply enough: Captain Shh-nel opens the doors to her beloved outhouse for what she promises will be the finest show on the seven seas. The audience gathers. The charm flows. And then the toilet seat opens.
Out crawls Stu of the Loo — a sewer rat with opinions, a bowler hat, and absolutely no intention of leaving. What follows is 30-minutes of comedic chaos, filled with magic tricks, audience participation, terrible puns, and at least one plunger-related near-death experience.
Every show is different. The bits rotate. The crowd decides. Nobody leaves without laughing — or questioning their life choices.
“Why poop alone when you can poop with a friend?”
What's In the Show
Rotating bits keep every performance fresh — like a can of Febreze, you never know what's coming next.
Tales from the Blue
The opening sea shanty recounting high seas adventures… and low bowels.
Victoria’s Secret Chest
A Metamorphosis Trunk illusion where Stu and Shh-nel mysteriously swap places inside a pirate chest.
Human Toilet Paper Holder
One brave audience volunteer. One unforgettable purpose. No further questions.
Impressions
Stu and Shh-nel transform into unicorns, bidets, and things that cannot be un-seen.
The Plunger of Death
The death-defying finale. A knife-throwing act. With plungers. You’ve been warned.
Meet the Characters
Captain Shh-nel
Performed by Erica Minton
The self-proclaimed captain of the finest outhouse on the seven seas. Shh-nel is equal parts charm, chaos, and questionable nautical authority — armed with a plunger and an unshakable belief that this is, in fact, a legitimate theatre.
“Welcome, welcome, one and all, to the FINEST outhouse on the seven seas!”
Stu of the Loo
Performed by Phoenix Minton
The uninvited resident of the outhouse's plumbing system. Stu is a sewer rat with a bowler hat, a chip on his shoulder, and an alarming amount of opinions about property rights. He didn't ask to be here — but he's certainly not leaving.
“...Why does she have a plunger?”
Between them, Erica and Phoenix bring 30+ years of Renaissance faire performance including stunt work, stage combat, clown school, joust shows, and yes — more time in portable restrooms than either of them would care to admit.
