Drag queen Courtney Berringers may be dead-but she's not done talking. Set in 2004, At the Wake of a Dead Drag Queen moves between Courtney Berringers' wake and the moments that shaped her life, guiding the audience through a story of drag, love, and chosen family. Alongside aspiring drag performer Vickie Versailles, Courtney serves a dazzling blend of traditional storytelling and high drag while navigating Black identity, Southern queerness, HIV/AIDS, poverty, and the legacy we leave behind. At the Wake of a Dead Drag Queen is a celebration of community, resilience, and the enduring power of drag.
The cast features Malcom Morgan-Petty (local drag star CoCo Caliente) as Courtney/Anthony and Garrick Sigl as Vickie/Hunter.
