Thanks

Yes, it is VERY fun! I competed and won the first competition at the beginning of this month for Broadway Night. Every week is a different theme. Next Saturday (the 8th) is Disney Night and I will be there again. You will have a blast no matter what week you go :)

I will be in NYC that weekend! I asked a friend about it and he is not into drag. But I want to go. Will see if I can talk him into the early show.

swansealad,
You will have a blast!
I went a few weeks ago and its set up like a game show. So you win stuff. I walked out of there with a dvd and Celine Dion's new album,..they gave out theater tickets and other stuff too. The performances are hysterical and it's a different show every week. The talent is amazing and I have a newfound respect for the kind of work drag artists do. My friend got picked for an audience participation part...and without giving anything away...I literally fell to the floor laughing at what happened to him. I think you will have an awesome time. They also serve food and drinks there,...so you can do it all at once and enjoy the show.

wonderrobbie, I want to see you perform live. I'll try and make it that night too!

:)

I had a blast at the drag off- it was a lot of fun. I love drag theatre. I'm going to go check out this show A Very Mary Christmas. Just got my ticket. A Drag queen plays the virgin mary! Saw it here: https://www.broadwayworld.com/viewcolumn.cfm?colid=23460

I missed Mimi at the drag off. I think you were there the night I went WonderRobbie. You were great.

I can't wait to see that show.

I want to see this show so bad and Alex wanted me to see this show for the longest time... I was reading the HX magazine and I saw an article about Mimi Imfurst and I got soo interested in the show about the Virgin Mary drag.. oh my !

Don't worry Alex.. I will see this show for you, honey... and of course I wanted to see our very own WonderRobbie too !

Sounds dangerous. I just found this article:

Apparently Mimi did another virgin mary show, and it got protested. I love it when people piss off crazy religious people!

Check out this picture, all the protestors infront of subway!
