| Description |
South Beach glamour and a South Philly cast walk hand in hand down the catwalk this April in The Rivals: A Drag Comedy. This hilarious gender-bending belly buster is modern-day twist on the Richard Brinsley Sheridan classic complete with men sashaying seductively in dresses and ladies strutting headstrong with ties tied tight. In the tradition of Debbie Does Dallas: The Musical and Oedipus Kings: The Drinking Game, To the Wall Productions brings Philadelphia another fierce farce sure to bring out the diva in even the most manly of men.
Set in 18th century Bath, England, The Rivals: A Drag Comedy is the story of the hopeless romantic Miss Lydia Languish (Jerrell Henderson), the men she loves and the men who want her. The wealthy Lydia is in love with Ensign Beverly (Emily Cheney) as well as the idea of marrying a poor soldier but her aunt, Mrs. Malaprop (John Greenbaum) has a different plan for her future and arranges for Lydia to marry Captain Absolute. What will happen when it is reveled that Captain Absolute and Ensign Beverly are one in the same?
