Dan, a misanthropic drag queen in his mid-thirties, only has one thing on his mind - to get on tv and become famous. That is until Sally, his estranged ex-girlfriend, reappears and asks him to donate sperm so she and her girlfriend can have a baby.
As Dan grapples with this decision, the pair rekindle their friendship, causing a strain in his relationship with drag mentee Nathan.
A hilarious and heart-warming new play about queer friendship and chosen family.
Drag Baby returns following a 5-star run at the King’s Head Theatre in 2022.
Grace Carroll’s second play follows her critically-acclaimed Wet which played to sold out audiences at Theatre N16 and Perdu Theatre Amsterdam.
Directed by Joseph Winer whose previous production of Louis Emmitt Stern’s I F*cked You in My Spaceship won the Origins Award for Outstanding New Work at VAULT Festival before transferring to Soho Theatre last year.
