The Playhouse Band

Chicky Baby is a beatnik puppet who usually talks somewhat faster than Dirty Dog and Cool Cat. She brings out the band's "feminist" side and is based on the singer Rickie Lee Jones, whose beret, long blonde hair and jazzy repartee were uniquely associated with Miss Jones, the 'duchess of Coolsville". Chicky, too,

She and the others were going to appear in the 2010 revival of The Pee-wee Herman Show—having just returned from a medical marijuana pharmacy and are thus weed-smokers—but the characters were forced to be removed from the show when Paul Reubens realized that this wasn't considered family-friendly.

She was voiced and puppeteered by Alison Mork, who also performed as Chairry, Magic Screen and Chandelier.

Appearance[]

Chicky Baby is a white puppet female beatnik bird with blonde hair that covers her right eye and a yellow bill, and wears a black beret and a black dress.
