  Stand Up Homo
Cuckow, a founding father of Kill Your Television Theatre, devoted to the edgy, the raw and the contemporary, landed a succession of ranting slackers, sexually ambiguous underachievers, coked-up dope dealers and Shakespearean cross-dressers.
When Cuckow was asked to expand it to a full show for 2002's NextFest and Fringe festivals, he applied another degree of meaning to the silly but catchy title.
Cuckow says we seem to go out of our way to find means to segregate ourselves and others, especially when it comes to sexuality.

  Cuckoo
The Cuckow is a summer-visitant to the whole of Europe, reaching even far within the Arctic circle, and crossing the Mediterranean from its winter-quarters in Africa at the end of March or beginning of April.
Cuckows too have been not unfrequently shot as they were carrying a Cuckow’s egg, presumably their own, in their bill, and this has probably given rise to the vulgar, but seemingly groundless, belief that they suck the eggs of their kinds of birds.
That there is a reasonable probability of each Cuckow most commonly putting her eggs in the nest of the same species of bird, and of this habit being transmitted to his posterity, does not seem to be a very violent supposition.

Cuckow said the board will have to cut a minimum $125,000, though that final figure could increase or decrease based on state legislation and negotiations with staff regarding benefits and salaries.
However, Cuckow and Elemtary School Principal Libby Hiza were guaranteed an income through 2010 as both had their contracts formally approved in the later stages of the meeting.
While Cuckow said that cuts will be necessary, he said he felt frustrated because he wanted to bring in new programs that would “peak student interest” and combat the dropout rate.

The play centres around Tom Wingfield (Cuckow), a more or less autobiographical character for Williams, and his struggles to fit in and support his family, including an overbearing harpy of a mother (Marianne Copithorne) and his frail, timid sister (Beth Graham), who spends most of her energy on her glass animals.
Though both Cuckow and Sutley admit Menagerie is an “American classic,” they still find that it fits in rather well with the theatre’s aesthetic of outcasts finding their place around the world.
Cuckow is right—the only reference to a production in Edmonton I could find was a 1965 version at the Citadel, some 40 years ago, which is all the more reason it’s right up KYT’s alley, Cuckow says.

There are however other families in the United Kingdom with the same surname, principally the Kent ‘Cuckow’s’, a family much larger than ours but totally unrelated.

 FFWD Weekly - January 20, 2005
It was there that Cuckow’s incendiary solo show about a repressed queer comic had begun assembling itself years earlier, via monologues and rants such as "Homologue" and "P.S. I’m Gay" (not to be confused with Cuckow’s former rap group Cocksuckas and the Femine-emme Doctor Gay).
Originally, Cuckow wrote the piece with less focus on a specific religion, but having been a Mormon himself, decided to deepen his personal connections.
Cuckow’s great at charming his audiences while keeping his eye on the main focus, which is that, ultimately, we’re all human.

 History
Although there may be some confusion with his Uncle John who died in 1742, it is thought unlikely that John Cuckow would have had a separate household prior to his marriage to Mary circa 1735 (to date this marriage has not been found).
As he also acted as a witness at the marriage of Ann Cuckow the following day it would seem to indicate that they were brother and sister.
Cuckow was buried at Port Jackson on 3 April 1807.

Cuckow most recently performed in Stand Up Homo, a comedic one-man show about growing up a gay Mormon—a radical departure from his current role as the hyper-masculine, wannabe-cowboy Eddie.
But as the professional thespian he is, Cuckow is up to the challenge.
In order to complete his transformation into modern cowboy Eddie, Cuckow learned some tricks of the West, got some new duds and was quite surprised with the results.

 Fondation Émergence - Page version imprimable - RTF
Cuckow is an engaging performer; his ability to create the illusion of semi-improv, that slightly synthetic weave of the prepared and the offhand that makes failed standup so torturous and lame, is uncanny.
What emerges cumulatively from the texture of comedy-club throwaways -- "I always thought a metrosexual was someone who had sex on buses" -- that Cuckow delivers so convincingly in his nervous, rather careful persona, is an undertow of continuing prejudice, violence in language and attitude.
How Cuckow pulls the net of characters, annotations, insights, perspectives, memories and personality fragments into a whole person who is both on- and offstage -- the way all of us perform in our lives -- is the real "secret" here.

 History
This idea is given credence by the fact that John Cuckow is first assessed on 23 Nov 1687 as John Cookow, junior 6d.
The wording seems to indicate that he may have given up the tenure, perhaps due to ill health, and the fact that his assessments in the rates for 1739, 1740 and 1741 were abated would seem to indicate he was in reduced circumstances.
It is only an assumption that his surname was Cuckow - it is not given in the assessment.
