# Calico Cooper filmography

Calico Cooper is a stage performer, actor, and singer. At age 16, she began performing in her father Alice Cooper's stage shows. Her career began at age 18 when Alice hired her to perform multiple roles in and provide choreography and design costumes for his Brutal Planet tour. Met with positive receptions, she stayed a regular in Alice's shows until 2011. She joined the band Beasto Blanco in 2012 as a stage performer and vocalist. In the 2000s, when not on tour with Alice Cooper, Calico acted in several independent films, mostly horror, including The Curse of El Charro, JunkfoodHorrorfest (2007), where she portrayed a "junkie serial killer", and Rolling (2007), where she portrayed a character using MDMA at a rave. A role in a deleted scene in the 2007 Halloween remake earned her Screen Actors Guild card. She played a lead role in The Visitor, which was in pre-production in 2008. Cooper portrayed Heather in Dakota Skye (2008), a barmaid in the horror film Suck (2009), and co-starred as the "Woman" character in Thirty Proof Coil (2010). Her first starring role in a film was in the 2010 horror film Thirty Proof Coil. She claims that she landed many horror movie roles due to her shows with Alice.
In 2011, she stepped down from regularly touring with Alice to better pursue her acting career. At the advice of local actors she enrolled in master classes taught by Ivana Chubbuck. After taking the course, at Chubbuck's recommendation, she auditioned, successfully, for the improv comedy groups The Groundlings and Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. She also studied with the Stella Adler Studio of Acting, Margie Haber, and Gordon Hunt. In 2011, she landed a starring role in the TV series Bloomers (2011–2018) as the recurring character Lila Black and made an uncredited cameo in Hall Pass (2011). She portrayed Marcy in 13/13/13 (2013) and co-starred in Welcome to Hell (2018), which incorporated the short Family Time originally from 2013, portraying Susan, a murderous pedophile mother. She portrayed herself in The Curse of Denton Rose in 2020. Additional television roles include the murderer Jane Miller in a 2015 episode of Hawaii Five-0, and the character Tabitha in the 2016 episode "Danger & Thunder" in the children's comedy series Henry Danger. In 2016 she made an appearance on The Mindy Project. Cooper's directing and production work includes directing commercials and music videos and producing the crime-comedy film Love of Mass Destruction, which she co-starred in, the short film The Taxi Man, and the single-episode TV series The Normal Ones, a show she also wrote and co-starred in. In the 2024 short film Fire Fucking Fire, which debuted at Tribeca Festival in June, Cooper co-starred as the rock star love interest Meg opposite Ally (Rachel Paulson).
