The Joan Q. Story
They say Joan once read the stars for Nancy Reagan. She won’t confirm it — but she also won’t deny it.
What is known is that thanks to her Scorpio moon, Joan has spent a lifetime listening to what hums beneath the surface. And after a period of long illness and then the loss of her dearest friend, Joan felt the veil between worlds thin — and somewhere in that in-between, she began to listen more closely, and own her comic and cosmic gifts alike.
Joan doesn’t claim the prophetic vision of a psychic nor the channeling gifts of a medium; what she offers is subtler, stranger, and often funnier. She is a Piscean performer, a Capricorn-in-Saturn comedienne, and genuine intuitive — an interpreter of archetypes, instincts, and cosmic coincidences.
She is a seeker of the magical, perhaps just like you. Her favorite “second sight utensils” are her Tarot cards—she possesses two favored decks, The Sacred and The Profane.
And whatever tricky wisdom she possesses, she uses to help her querents feel safe, seen, and set free.
Now based in Washington, D.C. with her beloved partner and cat, Joan Q. appears in cabaret shows, private soirées, local establishments, and on her supernatural talk show Under the Stars Tonight, at Washington Improv Theater.
Joan Q. is a compass rose at life’s crossroads — pointing not north, but inward. She trusts her instincts and her cards—as do her deeply engaged audiences and repeat clientele.
Trust her with your story, and she will help light your way.
