DEATH OF A DRAG QUEEN is a hilarious glitter-streaked Southern gothic about love, loss, and the personas we build to survive.

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.

Breaking new ground as a one actor/one drag queen live performance. 'Tuck after tuck, somethin's gotta give!'
