About Ms. Blakk for President
Introducing Joan Jett Blakk — the first (and only) Black Drag Queen Candidate for President of the United States of America. It’s the early 90s, the height of the AIDS epidemic, and Joan and the newly formed Queer Nation Chicago set off on an exhilarating and dangerous journey to drag queer politics out of the closet — and onto the floor of the DNC. Inspired — but not bound — by the true story of drag performer and activist Terence Alan Smith, Ms. Blakk For President is a joyous stampede through urgent and unfinished business. Part campaign rally, part nightclub performance, part confessional — and all party — this singular new work by Tina Landau and Tarell Alvin McCraney stars Wayne Brady as the incomparable Joan/Terence.
