Chicago League of Lady Arm Wrestlers

Tamale has wrestled as a part of the Chicago League of Lady Arm Wrestlers (CLLAW) as Schemepunk Sally, then later as Kracken Skulls. The league is sponsored and produced by Sideshow Theatre Company, an Illinois non-profit founded in 2007. Members contribute an active voice and presence to the operations and growth of the league by attending league functions and contributing time to the planning and execution of CLLAW events. By becoming a member of the Chicago League of Lady Arm Wrestlers, you are also becoming a part of CLAW USA, the Collective of Lady Arm Wrestlers. Founded in 2011 with 19 leagues across the country, the mission of CLAW USA is to empower women and strengthen local communities through theatre, arm wrestling, and philanthropy. CLAW USA hosted its first all-league showdown, Super CLAW, in June 2012 in Charlottesville, Virginia. CLLAW (here in Chicago) includes a compendium of female-identified participants and seeks to create a safe space for all participants and audience. We seek to mirror the diversity of our greater society and welcome participation from people of diverse identities by age, race, class, ability, and gender definition. More about CLLAW!
