Weber’s staging is well-conceived and highly entertaining. Layton, Reed, Doggett, and Coffey all turn in expressive portrayal as a cohesive ensemble.

My biggest goal in the present is Christmas Past. If the Past were past, I'd never be it in the future. I would love to know how to do that.
DEATH OF A DRAG QUEEN is a hilarious glitter-streaked Southern gothic about love, loss, and the personas we build to survive. Set in a small Louisiana apartment doubling as a backstage dressing room, the play follows Cram Brulée—a fading drag legend—as she prepares for what might be her final performance. Haunted by memories and betrayals, Cram struts, spirals, and sews her soul back together in a one-drag queen showdown soaked in sequins and secrets. Equal parts camp and confession, it’s a lipstick-stained elegy for those of us who love too much, give too much, and believe in everyone but ourselves. Breaking new ground as a one actor/one drag queen live performance. 'Tuck after tuck, somethin's gotta give!'
Laurie Metcalf is back treading the boards in Little Bear Ridge Road, the new Broadway play now running at the Booth Theatre. On Tuesday, the Tony winner visited Live with Kelly and Mark to talk all about it. Watch the interview now.
