Theatre at St. John’s, in association with Yorick Theater Company, is pleased to announce the first ever revival of Charles Ludlam’s GALAS, starring and directed by Everett Quinton in celebration of Stonewall 50 and World Pride.
GALAS will play a limited engagement from June 13th through June 28th at the Theatre at St. John’s (81 Christopher Street), a stone’s throw from Stonewall and the play’s original home, Ridiculous Theatrical Company.
In this grand finale of a series saluting Quinton’s artistry, opera diva extraordinaire Maria Magdalena Galas (rhymes with Callas) once again storms into the West Village with style, flair, and a whole lot of high comedy. An icon of New York theatre, West Village history, and LGBTQ+ culture, Quinton brings to life one of the world’s most demanding artists in this uproarious combination of pop culture and high art.
Expertly navigating melodrama and satire, GALAS paints a hilarious yet honest portrait of a deeply-troubled diva from the days of her highest praise to the last spent in lonely despair.
