For the last seven years Jamie Morris' twisted version, MOMMIE QUEEREST, has had sold-out audiences across the country rethinking the oft-quoted tale with the simple premise, 'What if Joan had really been a man all those years?' Told by an all male cast of four, MOMMIE QUEEREST entertains the notion that Crawford was actually a man in drag, a fact she hid from her fans, her children, and the world. Even when Christina finds out, takes revenge, and writes 'Daddy Dearest' it's Joan who still has the last laugh.
