Leggy drag legend Edie returns home to Las Vegas with her sizzling new show, “Queen of the Desert,” at Queen Bar for one night only on Feb. 13.
Edie will have audiences burning up from her tales of living in the hottest place on earth (but it’s a dry heat). With her high-kicking, feverish choreography and steamy storytelling through song and dance, Edie turns up the heat with this red-hot new show. Part tribute to the 30th Anniversary of the queer cult classic film “Priscilla, Queen of the Desert,” Edie will take the audience on a scorching journey out west to the barren badlands she now calls home.
Edie is best known for Cirque du Soleil’s hit show Zumanity, where she starred as the emcee, the Mistress of Sensuality, performing at the New York-New York Hotel Casino. During her 13-year run, Edie performed over 5,600 shows for over 6 million people. Edie began her professional dance career at the age of 17 with Ballet Oregon. For the next 11 years she danced with Pacific Northwest Ballet, Ballet Chicago, and Pennsylvania Ballet before moving to New York City to pursue musical theater. Edie quickly became a fixture in New York City, where she racked up many awards, including Best Drag Queen (HX Award), Best Dance Artist, and Entertainer of the Year (Glammy Award). She starred in her autobiographical, off-Broadway show “LEGS!,” performed on the MTV Video Music Awards, appeared on “Sex and the City,” was featured at Wigstock and Broadway Bares, and made her Broadway debut alongside Cyndi Lauper and Alan Cumming in the Tony-nominated revival of “The ThreePenny Opera” at Studio 54.
