I’ve had a drag epiphany and have finally taken my love of RuPaul’s Drag Race into the real world by catching a few drag shows. The first of which was a Peaches Christ show with my favorite queen Trixie Mattel, Troop Beverly Heels. So, I am beyond excited to be letting everyone know about Peaches’ latest production coming to LA: Mean Gays!
This one features Kimchi, Willam, Laganja Estranja, and Peaches herself in a parody of Mean Girls for ONE NIGHT ONLY: March 9.
I can’t stress enough how much of a blast you will have if you attend this show. If it’s half as good as Troop Beverly Heels you’ll have a night to remember.
Read on for all of the details below!

After the smash success of her Troop Beverly Heels premiere tour with Trixie Mattel in 2018, drag icon Peaches Christ is starting off 2019 by paying tribute to one of the most fan-requested movies in the history of Peaches Christ Productions. Here comes the world premiere tour of Mean Gays!
It’s survival of the fiercest when Kimmy Chi (RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 8 finalist Kim Chi), a home-schooled transfer student from South Korea, moves to an American high school ruled by drag queen girl-gang The Plastics, led by the terrifying Willam George (RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 4 firebrand Willam, currently stealing scenes opposite Lady Gaga in Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born), and her ignorant band of loyal followers, Peaches “Swallows” Wieners (Peaches Christ) and stoner dingbat Laganja Smith (RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 6 standout Laganja Estranja, also seen in the Netflix series Dancing Queen). Will Kimmy fit in with these mean gays, or will they throw her under the school bus? Mean Gays is a hilariously irreverent live musical parody of the 2004 cult classic film Mean Girls starring Lindsay Lohan, Tina Fey, and Rachel McAdams.
Audience members are encouraged to pretend it’s Wednesday and deck themselves out in their pinkest attire! Care for some alcohol? If you’re going to drink, please do it at the Cool Mom cocktail bar in the lobby.
Reserved seating for Mean Gays starts at $35. VIP packages are available which include a post-show meet and greet with the cast, a signed poster, two complimentary cocktails, and other surprises. Tickets are available online at https://www.themontalban.com/shows or via phone by calling (323) 461-6999, or in person at The Montalbán box office at 1615 North Vine Street in Hollywood, Monday through Friday, 1pm–6pm.
