Maggie Tumiotto Jackson is speaking with visitors in a mansion with intensely colored, moody lighting.
She wears an ornate golden headdress adorned with pearls and burlap flowers, and antlers can be seen stretching up from it. She wears gold jewelry and a fur vest clasped with a silver Celtic knot. Her makeup is dark, and she stares intensely from under eyelashes that form umbrellas over her eyes.

The House Spiritualist

Haunted Soirée (formerly House of Spirits)

In 2023, I joined the cast of the Haunted Soirée (formerly known as House of Spirits) for its third chapter in New York City: The Legend of Vaughan Hall.

Hired for my abilities as a true professional spiritualist, I provided real readings to guests in character, transporting them to County Wexford in dialect, and weaving the house's haunted storyline into each exclusive tarot experience.

Meeting at the intersection of my loves for both immersion theatre and divination, this job was the niche fit of my dreams!

Dying for a Living

The Murder Mystery Company

For eight years, I've worked with a troupe of actors specializing in bringing murder to you right in your own home! (Or the local Italian restaurant.)

With settings spanning from the 1920s to the 2020s, and characters hailing from Siberia to Silicone Valley, this branch of American Immersion Theater boasts a wide (and whacky) repertoire.

For example: I've seduced crowds as the sequined speakeasy songbird, Amanda Lay. I've taught impromptu choreography to guests and rocked out our performance as Pat Minotaur and the Adorabulls. I've appeared in drag to embody the fabulously wealthy film aficionado, Sir Warren Peace. And, last but not least: I've perfected my "murder mystery gasp"!

Five people stand in front of a lineup wall with height markings on it. From left to right, we see: A man with a mullet and aviator glasses stretching his arms wide in a leather jacket. He wears zebra-striped fitted pants. Beside him is a girl with fluffy blonde hair and bright blue eyeshadow. This is Maggie. She strikes a model pose with one hand behind her hair, the other clutching the side of her blazer. Beneath it we see her slinky purple tank top and her silver mini skirt with legs wearing hose peaking out from beneath. To Maggie's left we see a woman in glasses and a dark shirt making a gasping expression with wide eyes visible behind her glasses. To her left are two men in wacky suits, one with a long moustache and the other with a blonde mullet.

On the left we see Maggie, with three others to the right. Maggie wears blonde braids with bangs that frame her pale face. Her lips are pursed and colored red, and her eyes look quizzical behind her brown tortoiseshell glasses. She holds the brim of her black pork pie hat. The other hand holds a notebook which she holds towards the camera. Over her shoulder we see a red-headed woman in a straw hat smiling. In the foreground a man in a suit with a white shirt and a bowtie is visible, with a well-kept brown beard and black academic-looking glasses. He wears a newsboy cap and an interested expression. On the far right a woman wearing a black dress and a black hat is visible. She also sports a cream-colored mink around her shoulders and large, square, dark sunglasses sitting above her sneering red lips.

Maggie is visible in 1920s hair and makeup wearing a sparkly flapper gown, looking into two mirrors where we see her pink phone in her hand to take the selfie.

In a room with wooden and black walls, four characters stand surrounding a white bust which wears a masquerade mask and a crown of colorful flowers. The bust sits atop a table beside some plates and other party supplies. At the left is a man in a dark suit and tie, with a red shirt buttoned beneath. He also wears a dark top hat and a red masquerade mask. He looks serious as he rests his hand on his belly. To the right stands a smiling woman with long dark hair wearing a yellow ball gown and an elaborate mask with tall pink feathers stretching from it. Past the bust, a man in a purple suit ensemble and a colorful masquerade mask stands brightly examining the bust. Maggie is furthest to the right, wearing a black dress with frilled accents and a ruffled white apron. She wears a frilled headband and red lipstick, along with a gold masquerade mask.
She holds a feather duster to the bust.

Against a white background, three actors stand. Maggie is at the left, wearing a red sequined dress and matching lipstick. She holds the lipstick canister as she looks at the camera with a smoldering expression. Her eyes are covered with dark makeup and a beauty mark can be seen beside her mouth. Her blonde hair is styled under a black cloche hat from which she peers. In the center is a man with wild white hair and what appears to be a black tophat. Round black eye glasses sit above a curled white moustache, and he holds a magic wand toward the camera. We see his arm wearing a white shirt, stretched toward the camera to take the selfie photo, and he wears in addition a patterned red vest and bowtie. He wears a sequined cape, and a name tag. On the right a woman with grey hair peeks out, wearing red lipstick and earrings.

Four actors stand in front of a wood wall and some white wooden folding chairs. On the left a dark-haired woman in a maid's uniform is seen looking attentive. Beside her is a man sharply dressed in a black suit and hat, with a long dark moustache and a black bowtie fastening his white button-down shirt. He squints suspiciously. Over his shoulder a man can be seen in a tan overcoat tipping a black fedora which conceals his facial features. He appears to be a detective. On the far right we see Maggie, who is dressed in drag wearing a shiny red and gold smoking jacket, a black neckerchief, academic glasses, a thin moustache, and a name tag upon her chest.

Three actors sit on an old-fashioned ivory couch with wooden accents. The background of an event venue is seen behind them. On the left we see Maggie, dressed in a sparkly red dress with a fluffy feather scarf and a thick black belt. She wears a small Santa hat atop her head which is adorned with curls and victory rolls. She wears a nametag, festive red gloves with white trim, and knee-high black boots with furry white trim. She has her hand on a cowboy's shoulder who sits on the middle of the couch in western boots, blue jeans, and a 10 gallon hat. He's lassoed the woman to his right who has grey hair and wears a warm-looking red and black striped sweater.

God Save the Queen!

The Tennessee Renaissance Festival

For three seasons, I passed the merry month of May working The Tennessee Renaissance Festival as one of the New Castle Players.

It was my charge to provide interactive atmospheric entertainment for patrons, as well perform in a number of stage shows including The Royal Improv Show, The Covington Glen Variety Show, and The Human Chess Match. Rehearsing and performing entirely outdoors, this creative process taught me how to safely wield a sword, how incredible it feels to take off a corset, and a whole lot of sea shanties.

Having played a peasant, I was known to purposely faceplant right into the gravel paths of the festival, just to bow down to Her Majesty most dedicatedly.

The subject of the photo is at the center. It is a mannequin with tan colored skin and shiny brown synthetic hair. They are laying in a hospital bed with their head resting on a white pillow, keeping warm under a white sheet which is pulled up to just below their chest. They are wearing a blue hospital gown and a navy blood pressure cuff visible on one arm. Immediately to the mannequin patient's right is a standardized patient with pale skin and red-blonde hair who is wearing glasses, a black procedure mask, and a green knit hat. She wears a long sleeved white shirt under a gray blazer. Above her head, a monitor displaying vital signs is seen. Others are gathered around the bed, though blurred out for privacy. They are medical providers, some wearing gray jackets and one wearing ciel blue scrubs. Everyone appears concerned for the mannequin.

A standardized patient actor with pale skin and blonde hair is laying in a hospital bed covered in a white fitted sheet. She wears brown tortoise shell glasses and has her hair pulled up atop her head in a messy bun. She smirks and holds a peace sign to the side of her face, her other arm stretched toward the camera, in apparent selfie-taking position. The arm nearest the camera is bandaged with stretchy brown gauze which is holding an IV in place. The white hep lock is visible emerging from the bandage after a clear tube. The patient has a smirk on her face as she rests upon a white pillow, with a white sheet pulled close to her neck. Her mint green hospital gown is visible on her shoulder, just next to the silver bed rails on the left side of the image.

The background of the photo is a bathroom, with the subject taking a selfie in a mirror. The subject is a pale-skinned young woman with her blonde hair in two French braids. She wears a white shirt that has been tie-dyed blue and red in a big swirl pattern, and black leggings. She is making a thumbs up with one hand and holding her pink iPhone with the other to take the photo. She wears an expression that seems like a cross between nervous and happy.

The image appears twice from different angles. The background of the image is a simulation exam room. A blue and grey exam table and a wooden door are visible in the background along with some black cables in between them. The subject is seated in a chair. She is a pale-skinned, blonde standardized patient with dark clothes and sandals. She has her hands held up in apparent frustration. A medical learner is visible at the edge of the frame, but no defining features are distinguishable for privacy.

The image appears twice from different angles. The setting is a medical simulation room including a dark round stool, medical instruments hung on a grey horizontal panel on the wall, and a blue exam table. A standardized patient with pale skin and glasses is seen laying on the table under a paper drape. They have their knees bent with their thighs towards their chest, and their socks are visible with two different patterns peeking from beneath the drape. The patient is lifting their blue medical gown to expose their abdomen. A medical learner stands to the side of the table, looking at the patient wearing ciel blue scrubs and a short white medical coat. They wear a stethoscope around their neck. Their features are blurred out for privacy.

A standardized patient is visible seated in a chair wearing dark pants, dark boots, a colorful shirt, and a denim overshirt. They have pale skin with blonde hair pulled up behind a scarf. They are clutching their leg with their hands, apparently fidgeting. A medical learner is seated just out of frame, with their features cropped out for privacy.

Ever wonder how doctors learn bedside manner? Through the help of Standardized Patients, of course!

Jk, no one has ever heard of us. We are basically medical schools' very own troupes of teaching artists trained to portray patients and their symptoms precisely, consistently, and with as much realism as possible! We aid in the education of medical students of all disciplines by providing them an opportunity to put their skills, from regular rapport to breaking bad news, on their feet before they encounter actual patients with actual conditions..!

I have portrayed numerous patients, from a terrified 16 year old consulting the OBGYN for the first time to a 40 year old mother of three receiving test results that reveal a potentially fatal diagnosis.
