Drag: The Musical, co-written by and starring RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Alaska Thunderfuck, is gearing up for its Off-Broadway run at New World Stages, with performances starting September 30 and an official opening night set for October 21.

Joining the fabulous cast are Drag Race alum Luxx Noir London as Popcorn, Bre Jackson as Dixie Coxworth, and Eddie Korbich as Drunk Jerry.
