Taylor Mac
Mac is a ukulele-playing drag queen who twinkles as brightly as a Christmas tree fairy that has been pulled through a hedge backwards. Sad, witty ditties about the trials and tribulations of New York life.

Anthony Neilson's wild, delirious trip of a play, in which the conscious and unconscious mind grate against each other like giant tectonic plates whose movements spark hilarious volcanic eruptions.
