Arizona Theatre Company, the State Theatre of Arizona, presents in co-production with Milwaukee Repertory Theater, The Legend of Georgia McBride by Matthew Lopez, the celebrated playwright of The Inheritance. In The Legend of Georgia McBride, Casey is an Elvis impersonator with everything going for him, including a flashy sequin jumpsuit. But just like that he loses his gig, rent is overdue and his wife announces a baby on the way. So when Elvis leaves the building and a drag show moves in, "The King" transforms into an all-out queen with the help of some new friends who become the second family Casey never saw coming. With snappy zingers and dance-worthy numbers, this wildly entertaining story will challenge your assumptions with extraordinary humor and depth.
