Kym Priess: Loser Lion Party Bus

Catch LOSER LION PARTY BUS before it blows up in Edinburgh!
Texas-born, LA-resident Kym Priess — comedic performance artist, rock frontwoman of STUNTDRIVER, and actual driver of car in movies—brings you Loser Lion Party Bus, a wild ride of synth-metal mayhem, clown chaos, and unexpected heart. A veteran of tours with Peaches, a singer on William Shatner’s album, and a “Best of Fringe” rock opera creator, Priess blends spectacle and adventure like no one else.
Enter Loser Lion: a washed-up Vegas wrestler turned unhinged party host in a ragged lion suit, armed with a headset mic, looper pedal, inflatable lover named Dolly, and a burning need to connect. Through air-drumming to Iron Maiden, beer-chugging contests, FaceTime calls with the Grinch, and a cassette tape from her bronco-riding father, Priess invites you into a surreal, hilarious, and moving world of grief, joy, and the relentless pursuit of creative freedom.
Part clown show, part healing ritual, and all heart—this interactive, immersive, high-octane joyride has been called “positively confrontational” and “critical to the existence of the dragon in you.” Think Rocky Horror meets Pee-Wee’s Playhouse by way of a roadside Vegas breakdown.
Grab a seat (they're facing each other) on this metaphorical bus. All aboard. https://linktr.ee/kympriess
