Pandora Productions Opens The 2022-2023 Season With THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA McBRIDE By Matthew Lopez

Pandora Productions, Louisville's only theatre company dedicated and most trusted to tell the stories of the LGBTQ+ community, opens the 2022-2023 Season with THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA MCBRIDE by award winning playwright Matthew Lopez.

Casey is a young, broke Elvis impersonator at a run down bar in the Florida Panhandle. He has everything going for him, including a flashy sequin jumpsuit. But just like that he loses his gig, rent is overdue and his wife announces a baby on the way. So when Elvis leaves the building and a drag show moves in, "The King" transforms into an all-out queen with the help of some new friends who become the second family Casey never saw coming. With snappy zingers and dance-worthy numbers, this wildly entertaining story will challenge your assumptions with extraordinary humor and depth. Filled with music and humor-and plenty of sequins-this joyful, acclaimed new play is a reminder that the path to prosperity and fulfillment may sometimes take an unexpected star turn. A hilarious, heartwarming, and unlikely new comedy.

THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA MCBRIDE will be produced live at the Henry Clay Theatre. Guest Director, Tony Lewis (Drag Daddy Productions) leads the cast that includes: Clark Worden as Casey/Georgia, Robbie Smith as Tracy, Adama Abramson as Jo, Sean Childress as Eddie, Immanuel Guest as Rexy and Joe Tindle as Jason.
