About the Show
Hot off a sold-out world tour with Trixie & Katya, Kelly Mantle is embarking on her own solo tour! “An Evening Without Kelly Mantle.”
A crazed comedic cabaret of characters performed by the chameleon herself. You’ll get acting, singing & dancing! Stand-up, Broadway & Rock-N-Roll! With a few familiar faces like Sheila & Sandy trying to steal the show.
Blurring fantasy and reality, Kelly uses the confusion of her illusion to create a world of delirious delusion. And you’ll leave the theater (gazing at her Drag Race promo photo) asking “What does it all meme?”
Born in the wagon of a traveling show, Kelly Mantle is an award-winning actress, singer/songwriter and comedian who has appeared on numerous television shows and feature films as well as over 59,000 Off-Broadway productions. A show pony at heart, she’s sure to steal yours in this one-woman tour-de-force work of art!
