Truth, Dare, or Lesbian
June 23 & 25 at 9:30 PM

Created and performed by Emily Drossell
Accompanied by Kate Theis and Chelsea Zak

At a sleepover in the early 2000s, a girl proposed we play "truth, dare, or lesbian." We all agreed...and then no one chose "lesbian." I left the next morning having missed out on not only my first queer experience, but the chance to actually play the game (and figure out what in the world the "lesbian" option entails). But all that is about to change! In this new musical comedy cabaret I, Emily Drossell, am going to present my truths, perform some dares, and delight in the many interpretations of the lesbian option as I respond in song to prompts given by you, the audience! Submit your prompts here!

*Please note that this performance will be presented at the Tank's in-person performance space at 312 W 36th St. All attendees and artists will be required to display proof of full covid vaccination before being admitted to the space, either by showing a vaccination record (vaccination card) at least two weeks out from the final dose of an approved vaccine, or by using New York's free Excelsior Pass service, available here.
