The Mickee Faust Club is an arts/activist Community Theater for the Weird Community of Tallahassee, Florida. Chief among those are people with disabilities, crips with attitude, LGBTQ+, Seniors, and those in reduced economic circumstance. The name “Mickee Faust” is a riff on a certain unctuous rodent living in Orlando and Goethe’s good German doctor whose struggles with the devil mirror the group’s own. The leader of the Club is Mickee Faust itself, a foul-mouthed, cigar-comping, gender-fluid, sewer rat. In real life, Mickee is played by our founder and artistic director- a deaf, lesbian, performance artist and author, Terry Galloway. 

For the many decades of its existence, Faust has provided the people of Tallahassee with a non-traditional performance group shaped by the Ethic of Accommodation, an ethic which allows those who are not just under served but overlooked to develop their own artistic voices. Throughout the year, novices and professionals work side-by-side in free, on-going workshops to create original cabarets, theater, radio, video as well as protest and celebratory events. Faust has always been open to anyone in the community who’d like to participate. Together, the members of the Club promote the presence of their alternative creative voice locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. 

Many of you may have heard that tornadoes tore off our Clubhouse roof in May. But fear not! They haven’t stopped our creativity. We will still be bringing low brow queer and political humor to various locations through the Capital city, until our new home can be established.
