Hotel Nikko San Francisco and Michael Feinstein are thrilled to welcome Emmy Award winner, Leslie Jordan, to Feinstein's at the Nikko for one performance only - Friday, January 31, 2014 at 8 p.m. Do gay men become their mothers? That is the question asked in Leslie Jordan's hilarious and touching new romp, Fruit Fly. A tribute to motherhood, Jordan travels back in time using show-and-tell to take audiences on the ride of a lifetime, sharing hysterical stories about growing-up as a flamboyant, doll-loving boy in the South. From the day a teenage Leslie sits down with his caring but clueless mother to inform her that he has decided to forego college to become a female impersonator, all the way to a gay Alaskan cruise with 2,000 gay men on which a 53 year-old Leslie witnesses his aging mother's astounding metamorphosis, Jordan's storytelling skills make for an evening of fun and thought-provoking theater. Tickets for Leslie Jordan range in price from $25-$35 and are available now by calling 866.663.1063 or visiting www.ticketweb.com.
