This presentation was amazing - I didn't want it to end! I left it feeling uplifted and inspired. Jonna is SO talented and courageous. I'll have her in my heart for the rest of my days.
Jonna was amazing and extremely entertaining. She deserved the standing ovation she received.
It was an incredible performance and story, one I won't get out of my mind for a long time. I would recommend everyone I know to see it. Thank you for bringing it to us.
Jonna was amazing, her incredible story was simultaneously side-splitting funny and tear-jerking tragic. True clown material, delivered by one first-class clown.
Incredible presentation! Touching, entertaining, and gave you a feel for what the patients are dealing with. Thank you to whoever came up with the idea to invite her!

Moving, funny and always entertaining, Jonna's Body, Please Hold is the brainchild of Jonna Tamases who, after her third bout with cancer, brought her story to life - and to the stage.
The result is a one-woman, one-hour show that takes us into the hilarious inner world of Jonna's Body, where a sassy receptionist fields calls from a parade of quirky body parts: Baby Toe trapped in a too-tight pump! Sgt. Coif leading a head full of unruly troops; Uta and Ula, begging to be released from their brassiere imprisonment! When two nasty killers invade, Jonna's Body must unite to fight for her life, in a heart-pounding battle that will leave you breathless with laughter and joy.

Jonna attended Columbia and Stanford Universities before attending from the world famous Ringling Brothers Clown College. She enjoys bringing her show to audiences around the country. "I love to connect with people, share the recognition that life is both hard and fun. Let's have a laugh!"
