Yvonne Is Left Out
Yvonne Freese has some hard and fast rituals about doing her Mega-Synthia make-up before each show, and it can often be a very time-consuming process. Because of this, she sometimes has to miss out on some of the green room shenanigans the rest of the cast get into. This can cause her to get a bit… mad. Check out an example in the video below, and when you come to see MST3K LIVE: The Great Cheesy Movie Circus Tour when it comes to your town, please leave your rotisserie chickens at home. Thank you.

DANCE FIGHT. Check out a brief demonstration in the video below. And don’t forget that The Great Cheesy Movie Circus Tour may be coming to your town soon, so dance your way over to the box office and grab your tickets today!

Conor Can Eat Again!
Hello, all! If you saw last week’s video update, then you’ll know that Conor (Tom Servo) was recently under the weather. But all is well! Conor’s feeling better and, hallelujah, he can even eat solid food again! Check out Conor’s return to health in the video below, and please, take care of yourselves.
And We’re Back!
Welcome back, everybody! Our cast and crew are well-rested and are already back on the road for the 2020 leg of MST3K LIVE: The Great Cheesy Movie Circus Tour! The show recently stopped in Seattle, WA, which happens to be the city No Retreat, No Surrender takes place in. If you’ve seen our riff of the film, you know that the grave of Bruce Lee plays a pretty crucial part in the story, and Emily (Emily Crenshaw), Nate (Crow), and Yvonne (Mega-Synthia/GPC) recently visited the grave to pay their respects. And if you haven’t seen our riff of the film, what are you waiting for? Get your tickets today!
Checking in from Universal Orlando
Greetings! Welcome to another weekly check-in from the cast of MST3K LIVE: The Great Cheesy Movie Circus Tour. Shortly after Thanksgiving, the cast had the chance to let loose at Universal Studios in Orlando, FL, shortly before going on their holiday break. The tour will be on a brief hiatus until January 15, 2020, but we’d like to thank each and every one of you who joined us in the fall and winter of 2019 to catch Joel on his final tour, and welcome the new road cast into the fold. See you in the new year!
Post-Turkey Day Space Walk
Hello, all, and welcome to another update from MST3K LIVE: The Great Cheesy Movie Circus Tour. We hope you all had a fun and filling Turkey Day. The cast and crew got to celebrate the holiday with their friends and families, but now that Thanksgiving is behind them, it’s time to get back on the road for the final shows of 2019. We hope to see you there! (That is, if you’re not still passed out from all the tryptophan…)
