Wanted: Drag or Alive!
Skinny Minnie • Semi-professional company
About Skinny Minnie
Wanted: Drag or Alive! is a 60-minute stand-up show from Skinny Minnie, a drag performer who rides into town with a price on her head and a story she swears is mostly true. Once the crown jewel of the circuit, now a fugitive of her own reputation, she gun-slings through her glory days, grudges, and the cost of staying fabulous when the whole world's gunning for her. The show is filthy, sharp and fearless, playing at The Bothy. Age guidance is 18+, with warnings for distressing themes and strong language.
Why see this show?
A witty, western-framed drag hour with genuine stakes — Skinny Minnie is collecting her own darn bounty. If you enjoy cabaret that's more stand-up than spectacle, and comedy that isn't afraid to get dark, this is a memorable 60 minutes.
