Writer/activist Dan Savage makes a bold and brash return to the stage as creator/director of this outrageous comedy, which tells the heartwarming and high-camp story of Helen Stellar, a fabulous drag version of the famed deaf and blind girl. Set at Seattle's own famed Brass Connection, Stellar reaches for the stars during amateur night, but it takes a village of true divas and, of course, a very special teacher to help her achieve her dream of being crowned a true queen.

Hilarious, inappropriate, and surprisingly touching. The best piece of theatre I've seen in a while.

Description

You know writer and activist Dan Savage from The Stranger and the It Gets Better Project, but Dan’s first love was theatre. This summer Dan returns from his theatrical hiatus to create a drag extravaganza that asks what would happen if Helen Keller and the Seattle drag scene of the early 1990’s smashed into each other. Raised by a drag queen amidst false lashes and sequined bras, Helen Stellar struggles to find her voice during amateur drag nights at Seattle’s own Brass Connection. Only with the help of a mysterious out-of-town tutor, and an army of divas, will Helen become a show-stopping queen. Watch the versatile acting ensemble break free from Shakespeare and Ibsen in the fabulous Miracle!, a comedy that guarantees to be offensively heartwarming and celebrate the unique voice in us all.

The show is intended for those ages 17 and older only and features simulated sexual acts, offensive language and fabulous drag performances.

Running time is 1 hour, 45 minutes with a 15-minute intermission.
