If you are in Chicago for the start of 2023 then you must ‘drag’ yourself to the Pride Arts Center on North Broadway for a new production of a queer family dramedy. IN THE FAMILY is written by (and starring) Tirrany Reigns and co-directed by Ramona Mirage , this is an original story of a drag family’ facing the trials, tribulations, and hangovers that come from a major loss in the family and a raucous New Year’s Eve.
The IN THE FAMILY very talented (and maybe a tad overdressed) cast will include April Showers a new-to-Chicago actor with credits at Shakespeare on the Sound, Connecticut Repertory Theatre, and Hawaii Shakespeare Festival; Avery Uñate, a Chicago drag artist who performs under the name Mx. Avery Knight; Lezbian Minnelli, a graduate of the Theatre School at DePaul University; Chicago drag artist Oddrey Ball; Zach Moore, who recently appeared as Princeton/Rod in Avenue Q for Madkap
IN THE FAMILY will play two weekends only: January 6-8 and 13-15 at the Pride Arts Center,
4139 N. Broadway, Chicago. The performance schedule is Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm
and Sundays at 3:00 pm. t www.pridearts.org.
