Storyteller/monologist Miss Coco Peru aka Clinton Leupp got his/her start as a downtown favorite in the cabaret world of NY after he wrote, produced, directed, and starred in his first show “Miss Coco Peru in My Goddamn Cabaret” over 20 years ago.
On screen, Miss Coco is best known for her roles in Jim Fall's feature film, “Trick” (Sundance 1999) and Richard Day's “Girls Will Be Girls.” (Sundance 2002) For this film Coco shared the Best Actress Award with his two co-stars at the HBO Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen as well as the Best Actor Award at LA’s Outfest Film Festival. Other film appearances include “To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar,” Nick and Jane,” and “Straight-Jacket.” Coco can be heard in the Disney animated feature, “The Wild as Mamma Hippo!” She also appears in the highly-ish anticipated sequel of “Girls Will Be Girls” which will be released some day, hopefully.
Coco has appeared on TV in two stand-up comedy specials on LOGO: “Wisecrack” and “Dragtastic,” “How I Met Your Mother,” “Arrested Development,” “Twins,” “Will and Grace,” “New York Undercover,” “Detroit 187,” several Bravo reality and clip shows, and in an Orbitz commercial that was nominated for a GLAAD Media Award.
Coco hosts an on-going live series of shows at the Renberg Theater in Los Angeles called “Conversations With Coco” in which Coco interviews and celebrates the lives and careers of the GLBT community's favorite icons. Miss Peru's guests include Liza Minnelli, Jane Fonda, Bea Arthur, Lily Tomlin, Karen Black, Lainie Kazan, Lesley Ann Warren, and drag legend Mr. Charles Busch.
She is also available for children’s parties.
