Shantay, You Stay! The Legend of Georgia McBride Extends Off-Broadway

Some off-Broadway queens are sticking around to serve more fish. Matthew Lopez's The Legend of Georgia McBride has extended its run at the Lucille Lortel Theatre. The MCC production, directed by Mike Donahue and starring Heathers alum Dave Thomas Brown, will now run through October 11. It was initially scheduled to play its final performance on October 4.

The Legend of Georgia McBride follows Casey (Brown), a down on his luck Elvis impersonator in the Florida Panhandle, who, in order to help his pregnant wife, turns to the world of drag. After he becomes an overnight sensation, Casey must juggle his unexpected career and family life.

The cast also includes Matt McGrath, Keith Nobbs, Afton C. Williamson and Wayne Duvall.
