But what a fabulous connection to make. Jerry Herman's musicals really are queer cannon because they are drag musicals. and we should be embracing them as such.

Bianca Del Rio as Mame. With Jinx Monsoon as Vera. And Symone somewhere. I would buy a ticket to that.

Alexandra Billings must play Mame. With Coco Peru as Vera and Audra McDonald as Gooch.

Take care,

I dunno... having recently seen Bianca/Roy in Everybody's Talking About Jamie... I'm not sure I'd recommend anyone see him act in a real musical again. I will say when in drag he was much more natural and charismatic (in drag playing a drag queen in drag), but out of drag (as a drag queen out of drag), not so good.

But also, I think you have it all wrong. Jinx is the Mame (the eccentric rich kook who eats everything at the buffet of life!), no question. Bianca is the Vera (the funny, dry, rude actress)... I mean, come on!

I should have written Jinx as Googe (right?), but your ideas better.

And it's 100% Roy playing Bianca playing Vera.

Is there a part for Laganja? I don't really know the show that well.
