PRINCE F*GGOT
A queer coming-of-age story set in a kingdom that fears anything different. A young prince searches for love and identity while breaking the rules of his world. The show blends fantasy, sharp humour and heartfelt truth.
Oh Mary!
Cole Escola’s chaotic reimagining of Mary Todd Lincoln returns to New York with sharp humour and big queer energy. Recent performers include Jinkx Monsoon, Tituss Burgess and Escola. Jane Krakowski leads the current cast with Cheyenne Jackson as Mary’s Teacher.
The Queen of Versailles Musical
A glossy musical about fortune, ambition and excess. When socialite-turned-billionaire Jackie Siegel aims to build America’s biggest mansion, her dreams clash with reality. Dazzling sets, sharp tunes by Stephen Schwartz and star power from Kristin Chenoweth make this spectacle hard to ignore.
& Juliet Musical
A pop musical that rewrites Juliet’s story with a focus on choice, self discovery and inclusive love. Features a key queer character and themes that speak to LGBTQ audiences.
Messy White Gays
A sharp comedy about queer messiness, nightlife, friendship and self-delusion. Drew Droege delivers a fast, honest look at gay culture in New York with big humour and real heart.
Sapphic Drag Night at Stonewall Inn
Celebrate sapphic drag brilliance with fierce performances and unforgettable energy. Hosted by Theydy Bedbug, this night at the iconic venue brings together queer excellence and bold artistry to honour sapphic voices.
A Very Alaska Christmas Show
A festive drag cabaret led by Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 with music, comedy, queer holiday chaos and playful camp energy. A bright Christmas night for the drag community.
Beetlejuice The Musical
A comedy musical about Lydia Deetz, a strange girl who meets a chaotic ghost couple and a troublemaker named Beetlejuice. The show blends horror, humour, pop culture and camp moments that attract many queer fans.
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
An uproarious return to middle-school chaos: “Spelling Bee” brings jokes, awkward teen energy and audience-involvement fun as contestants battle over words. Featuring Kevin McHale, this revival is equal parts laughter and chaos — with a chance you might be called on stage.
Death Becomes Her
A fabulously camp musical based on the 1992 film, about two frenemies who discover a potion promising eternal youth — only things get messy, magical and deadly. Expect glamour, dark humour, wicked visuals and wild twists.
Art - Play
Three longtime friends argue over a costly white painting; what starts as a polite debate becomes a hilarious and sharp fight about art, friendship and ego. A witty, incisive play starring well-known faces.
