Friends of George's presents MISTER ACT — a new, original play where everyone's sweatin' for salvation!
After witnessing a murder at their local bar, three drag queens are rushed into witness protection and relocated to a remote island compound run by a band of homesteading sister wives. Devoted to modesty, movement, and their mysterious "Church of Radical Joy," the women live by strict rules, and expect their new arrivals to do the same.
As the queens swap sequins for prairie skirts, they're coaxed into cult workouts, farming rituals, and preparations for the fiercely competitive Premier Pig Pageant. But while they're learning to live off the land, the killer who upended their lives is closing in. This high-camp comedy proves that survival depends on how well you can blend in…while sweatin' it out.(opens in a new tab)(opens in a new tab)
