Sasha Velour's TRAVESTY

“Career defining,” “genre-defying,” “point blank one of the most outstanding performances presently on stage” (Broadway World), Sasha Velour’s TRAVESTY is a dazzling 75-minute meditation on the queer lineage of a single spot throughout time. As she embodies different characters against a backdrop of signature projections, Velour inhabits each through a series of jaw-dropping lip-syncs and fantastical costumes (by Gloria Swansong, Diego Montoya, Andres Caballero, Jazzmint Dash, Peierretta Viktori, Misty Couture, and Robert Sorrell), inviting you to take part in the cycle of existence, resistance, and camp that IS drag. A writer, director, and artist with local roots, Sasha Velour demonstrates “she was born to light up a theater marquee” (Washington City Paper) as a “performer for the history books” (Broadway World). TRAVESTY will have you screaming at the top of your lungs, dancing in the aisles, and inspired!
