Born in Nuremberg, and forged in the operatic fires of Witchita's Friends University, Louisa dumped The Singing Quakers for a highly dysfunctional relationship with the Chicago acting scene. After The Wall came down, Bradshaw went to Berlin and became the reigning queen of the late-night cabaret scene. She morphed her act into the wildly popular three-woman show - Triple Goddess, which was then imported to Manhattan. She was praised by the New York Times as "wonderfully breathless in a silky polyester dress" for her comedic genius in "She is King."

Far Too Personal
A wild romp through the artist's mind, heart, and dirty laundry. We join Louisa on her mid-life victory tour with an eclectic of American standards, country, jazz, folk, rock, and originals. Bradshaw peppers her brilliant vocals, comedy, and full financial disclosure, for a night of, "No, she didn't," "Oh yes, she did!", musical entertainment and table-side therapy.
