The Fabulous Wonder Mama: Divas and Drama Queens

Wonder Mama will take you on a journey through iconic tunes by some of the world's biggest divas and drama queens in pop, disco, musicals, soundtracks, and beyond, and how they influenced her own personal journey from inner west catholic school boy to larger than life drag persona!

Accompanying Wonder Mama on piano will be a Claire's Petit Cabaret veteran, pianist Lindsay Partridge, bringing his exceptional musical talents to the show!

Join Wonder Mama and Lindsay for a fabulous evening of song this Mardi Gras season!
