About

Global drag icon Sasha Velour (HBO’s We’re Here, RuPaul's Drag Race) brings her latest theatrical spectacular, The Big Reveal Live Show, to Vermont, where she began her drag journey.

Known for her emotional, thoughtful, and crowd-shaking reveals, The Big Reveal Live Show takes things to a whole new level as Velour goes further than she ever has before. Grounded in classic theater, the show takes on many forms over the course of 90 minutes: high-concept lip sync performances, artful oration, childhood film footage, video art, and more. The Big Reveal Live Show shows this superstar at her most playful and hilarious. From the show's whip-smart comedic script and side-splitting gags, she uses comedy as a way to disarm audiences and hit them with emotional truths. The show’s drag performances are accompanied by a diverse soundtrack, ranging from Stevie Wonder to Britney Spears, Stephen Sondheim to Deep Purple.

This performance also features a special guest appearance from beloved drag icon Neon Calypso!

The Big Reveal Live Show runs for 90 minutes with no intermission. Copies of Sasha's book, The Big Reveal: An Illustrated Manifesto of Drag, will be for sale at the show and purchasers have a chance to get their copy signed by Velour after the performance.

This show is suitable for audiences of all ages.

VIP Meet & Greet

Package includes:

  • Exclusive art print
