HAVE "A VERY MARY CHRISTMAS" WITH MIMI IMFURST
"A Very Mary Christmas" featuring emerging drag star Mimi Imfurst will
present a newly updated version of her controversial (and sold out)
2006 show A VERY MARY CHRISTMAS. Conceived and delivered by writer/performer
Mimi Imfurst and composer/lyricist/arranger Mike Pettry (winner of the
2007 Jonathan Larson and Fredrick Loewe Awards), performances begin

). Additional shows are scheduled for Saturday December 22nd at 11:00
pm, Sunday December 23rd at 9:00 pm and Sunday December 30th at 9:00
pm. The show is directed by Braden Chapman.
A VERY MARY CHRISTMAS is a parody-musical retelling
of the months leading up to the birth of Christ, as told by the Virgin
Mary. With the help of her sidekicks - the jazz trio The Three Weissmans
- Mary also shares the intimate details of her relationship with her
boyfriend God, her love for her husband Joey, and her journey to stardom.
The show features parodies of holiday songs including We Need A Little
Christmas, Like A Virgin and Joy To The World. Highlights include
a finger puppet show and an audience sing along.
Mimi Imfurst has quickly established herself as one
of NYC's most outrageous, controversial, and hysterical night life
personalities. She currently is the host of Psycho Babble Mondays
at Therapy, Sing-out Louise Karaoke Wednesdays and TNT Thursdays at
Xes, and Heeeey! Bingo!! at OW Bar. She has been nominated for a 2007
Glammy Award and 2007 HX Drag Queen of the Year.
She has appeared in regional and New York productions
of Hedwig and the Angry Inch (Hedwig), The Rocky Horror Show (Frank
