Spiegeltent Presents
Erin Markey and Jasmine Rice LaBeija
8:00 pm – 9:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
Two extraordinary voices share an evening exemplifying the dazzling and vast spectrum of contemporary queer performance.
The “hilariously sociopathic” (New York Times) Erin Markey conjures up an elaborate alternative to the 2016 US election results in their new musical work, In the Most Shocking Presidential Election in the History of the United States of America, Erin Markey’s Mother Emerges as First Lady, comically exploring the back roads of familial intimacy.
The Juilliard-trained, International Godmother of the House of LaBeija, Jasmine Rice LaBeija has sold out the Guggenheim Museum, Lincoln Center, and countless queer clubs around the world. Now, with pianist Lachlan Glen, she brings her devastating wit, razor-sharp timing, and commanding tenor voice to the Spiegeltent with a program ranging from Handel to Copland.
