Off-Broadway's DRAG: The Musical will play its final performance at New World Stages April 27, though producers say a London run is next, with details to be announced. As of the final performance, the musical will have played 215 regular performances and 24 previews.

"From the moment we opened our doors at New World Stages, Drag: The Musical has been a celebration of community, self-expression, and unapologetic joy," say producers Tomas Costanza, Scott Prisand, and Matthew Weaver in a joint statement. "The love and enthusiasm from audiences, critics, and the incredible talent on and off stage have made this journey unforgettable. While our time in New York is coming to a close, this is just the beginning for Drag. The wigs have been fluffed, the heels have been raised, and the world is ready for more! Stay tuned—because honey, we’re not done yet."

The show opened October 21, 2024, at the Off-Broadway venue following two runs in Los Angeles. Written by RuPaul's Drag Race star Alaska Thunderf*ck, Tomas Costanza, and Ashley Gordon, the show follows two rival drag bars, each fighting for survival while dealing with financial troubles. Spencer Liff is directing and choreographing.

Alaska is also the show's original star, and is currently back in an encore run as Kitty Galloway that began February 8. The current cast also includes Nick Adams as Alexis Gillmore, Eddie Korbich as Drunk Jerry, Jan Sport as Savannah St. James, Jujubee as The Tigress, Lagoona Bloo as Tuna Turner, Luxx Noir London as Popcorn, Liisi LaFontaine as Dixie Coxworth, Lisa Hemi Johanson as Gloria Schmidt and Rita LaRitz, Nick Laughlin as Puss Puss DuBois, Remi Tuckman and Yair Keydar alternating in the role of ten-year-old Brendan Hutchinson, and Adam Pascal as the straight man Tom Hutchinson. Original cast member J. Elaine Marcos will return as Gloria Schmidt beginning March 26.

The ensemble includes Cameron Mitchell Bell, Peli Naomi Woods, Kodiak Thompson, Nicholas Kraft, Teddy Wilson Jr., and Adrian Villegas.
