Her show at the Rrazz Room features songs with her signature 60s mod style, her famous high-kicking choreography, and her witty, off-the-cuff audience banter! A native of Portland, OR, EDIE began her professional dance career at the age of 17 with Ballet Oregon. For the next eleven years she danced with Pacific Northwest Ballet, Ballet Chicago, and Pennsylvania Ballet before moving to New York to pursue musical theater. EDIE quickly became a fixture in New York City where she racked up a bevy of awards including Best Drag Queen (HX Award), Best Dance Artist and Entertainer of the Year (Glammy Award). She starred in her autobiographical, off-Broadway show "LEGS!," performed on the MTV Video Music Awards, appeared on "Sex and the City," was featured at Wigstock and Broadway Bares, and made her Broadway debut alongside Cyndi Lauper in the Tony-nominated revival of "The ThreePenny Opera" at Studio 54. EDIE's shows at the Rrazz Room mark her return to the cabaret stage. EDIE also appeared in the feature film, "Pot Luck." After the Rrazz shows, she returns to Vegas where she is contracted with Cirque du Soleil through 2010.
