MY STORY: My 30th and Golden Birthday was a few days ago, so I thought I would answer my most asked question of, “How long have you been doing ventriloquism and how did you start?” with a fun little post for y’all. 😁 I’ve been doing ventriloquism for 25 years, and I became interested in puppets because of my dad! When he found out I was going to be born, he wanted to learn ventriloquism so he could read to me using puppets. So, he did! When I was five, I noticed my dad’s lips and throat move a little when he was reading to me, and that’s when I put it all together that HE was the one making them talk. As a 5-year-old, this was mind blowing news to me lol. While growing up, I knew my dad went to a puppet convention every Summer, but when I found out it was a ventriloquist convention, I REALLY wanted to go! However, my dad told me he wouldn’t bring me unless I was serious about learning the art. So, I started reading and completed a course called “Maher Course of Advanced Ventriloquism” within six months of starting it. When I was 6-years old, I performed on a stage for the very first time. I fell in love with making people laugh and still do.I took over my dad’s business “Rocky Mountain Puppets” when I was 16 years old and started performing at libraries for Summer Reading Programs on a regular basis. I went from having 16 shows my first Summer to now performing over 200 shows every single Summer. Performing was a seasonal thing for me up until I graduated from college, which brings me to what I initially wanted to do with puppets.I have always been extremely passionate about health and fitness, so I wanted to be a doctor that used puppets with kids; however, chemistry, biochemistry, and basically all the chemistries and I…did NOT have chemistry 😂. I switched my major from Pre-Med to Psychology and graduated from Colorado State in Summer 2018. What happened after college with my business is a story for another time, but this just shows you that life is full of surprises. I am extremely grateful to have parents that have supported my dreams since day one. Mom & Dad, thank you for bringing me into this world. 💕 Here’s to another year around the sun! by @meghanmcasey

I’m gonna need all the energy I can get this week…🫠Update: Hackers no longer have access to my Business Facebook page, but it’s still difficult for me to get to this page to post. Still working on it and will hopefully have it resolved by the end of this week! by @meghanmcasey

I finally got verified on TikTok and somehow my puppets are trying to take all the credit lol For the past 6 years, I’ve had to CONSTANTLY deal with other accounts impersonating me/stealing my content on that social media platform. So, I’m very happy that you guys won’t have to wonder anymore if it’s actually my account! 🥳Thank you all so much for your support, and I hope y’all know how awesome you are 💕#comedy #ventriloquist #happy #verified by @meghanmcasey

Crush and Aidan have ALWAYS been a crowd favorite! 🤩This is from my 2018 Show, “Rock n’ Read!” It’s crazy watching back to this and seeing all the changes I’ve tweaked as a performer over the years to improve. This was filmed in Rifle, CO at the Rifle Public Library! #performer #comedy #ventriloquist #funny by @meghanmcasey
