Host. Musical Comedian. Cougar

    "Aunt Nance is the sex-positive, fun-loving, eccentrically-talented aunt you've always wanted. Even when playing to a packed house, Nance has the ability to feel like you're the only person in the room - and that you are seen, loved and deemed worthy from a person that immediately feels like family. From the show-opening "kegel and Whisp ritual" to the last sustained note of a show-stopping cabaret number, Nance will keep even the most jaded theater go-er entertained on every level."

    -Eva la Feva Performer, Producer, Manager of The Newport Theater

    “Aunt Nance is the quick-witted, charmingly inappropriate cougar-next-door. She's an unflappable force of song, dance, and hilarity. When life hands Nance lemons, she makes lemon bars…and then donates those bars to the Boy Scout bake sale… and then gets a little handsy with the troupe leader. An incredible host, a hilarious song-writer, and a snappy improviser, Nance can do it all!”

    - Bazuka Joe Performer, Producer, Director, Mover + Shaker

  • Committed

    “Every show you share with me will fill some part of you joy. You are seen, loved and will instantly become one of my sweet babes. We’ll laugh, dance, maybe even tear up a bit, but we’ll share something in a special way that can never be made again and it’s because you were there, at that moment, with me.”

    -Aunt Nance

  • Spunky

    “Aunt Nance is truly the hostess with the MOSTESS! As the host of Bawdy Bawdy Ha Ha Burlesque, Aunt Nance got our audience so hyped they decided their hands weren't enough--they started stomping their feet! Nance made even the most unexpected crises absolutely hilarious: during the show, the water briefly stopped working in the venue and audience members couldn't use the toilets. This could have been catastrophic to the show's good energy, but Nance turned it into one of the best improvised bits I've ever witnessed (trust me, you've never found the idea of drinking pee so funny). Nance is not only hilarious, however--she's also a gold-standard professional and helped our show run smoothly and on time. She is the quintessential definition of a triple threat: top-notch comedian, gorgeous voice, and one sexy, sexy lady. I would heartily recommend hiring her as a host for any event that needs a dash of irreverence and spunk.”

“With its quirky rituals like the “Ask a Cougar” segment, where questions left in the comments of Venmo donations receive hilariously candid answers, and the “seventh-inning stretch” after the seventh bingo round, the night is a delightful blend of tradition and unpredictability. Between calling out bingo numbers, Nance keeps the crowd in stitches with irreverent musings on hot flashes, Kegel exercises, and her unabashed horniness. Spontaneous moments, like conga lines weaving through the bar into Aunt Nance’s dressing room, add an extra dash of chaos.”

Congleton’s vision for Cougar Bingo is all about cultivating a haven of “cross-generational, inclusive silliness.”
