SUMMARY:Sherry Vine In Smoke and Mirrors 
DESCRIPTION:As part of her 60th birthday tour\, drag legend Sherry Vine will bring her Smoke and Mirrors tour to Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company on Saturday\, March 9 at 8 PM. This outrageous extravaganza\, presented in partnership with The Washington Blade\, features special guest stars and new parodies\, including Kylie\, Bruce Springsteen\, ABBA\, Broadway\, and Britney. Tickets start at $35\, with a select number of $100 VIP tickets available\, which includes premium seating\, Woolly and Sherry Vine merch\, and a pre-show meet-and-greet and photo op with Sherry. More information and tickets here. \nThe star and writer of The Sherry Vine Variety Show\, who describes herself as a “cougar\, broken down ex-showgirl with a heart of gold\,” grew up in Baltimore and started performing theatre at a young age. She discovered drag performance at the University of Southern California and has since toured the world and entertained audiences for three decades with her edgy performances and hilarious song parodies. \n“I’m celebrating my 60th birthday with a bang!” says Sherry Vine. “I can’t wait to bring this tour to Woolly Mammoth and to D.C. audiences. I was in D.C. recently while opening for Bianca del Rio on her tour. Your city’s audience knows how to show its love for drag\, comedy\, and a good show.” \n“Drag is a fabulously fun and beautifully theatrical art form that celebrates and uplifts the LGBTQ+ community\,” says Maria Manuela Goyanes\, Woolly Mammoth’s Artistic Director. “Our season is celebrating LGBTQ+ artists in so many ways\, and I’m glad we can bring a wildly fun show like this to Woolly for a one-night-only event. We’re such huge fans of Sherry Vine – big thank you to The Washington Blade and Lee Granados for introducing us.  Woolly’s audience is going to have a blast!” \n  \n### \n  \n  \nWoolly Mammoth Theatre Company and the Washington Blade present  \nSherry Vine In Smoke and Mirrors  \nDATE: March 9\, 2024 at 8:00 PM \nLOCATION: Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company \nTICKETS: Starting at $35-$50 for individual tickets.\nVIP tickets available for $100 to include premium seating\, a Woolly tumbler\, Sherry Vine pin\, and pre-show meet-and-greet and photo op with Sherry. \n
