EDFEST: A Drag Is Born

A Drag Is Born

Sunday, July 20th

In a twist of fate, an ordinary man finds himself magically transformed into the Queen of the Carnival. With advanced age, abundant body hair and limited talents, he is an unlikely candidate. Praised as a 'whimsical tour de force' (Orlando Weekly), this non-verbal blend of clown, drag and queer joy reminds us it's never too late to embrace your true self. Created and performed by Edu Díaz, a Fulbright-awarded artist from the Canary Islands, A Drag is Born has won five awards, including Best Solo Clown (NYC Fringe) and Best Solo Show (Orlando Fringe).

Part of EdFest, a festival of NYC Edinburgh Fringe previews produced by Jess Ducey, with technical director Jen Leno. Catch this and 11 other shows before they head to Scotland.
