Latrice Royale, Willam and Myra DuBois make West End debut in ‘Death Drop’
On London’s West End, murder is such a drag!
Drag legends and stars of RuPaul’s Drag Race Latrice Royale and Willam will be making their West End debuts in the fiercest (and only) murder mystery comedy in town — Death Drop, according to Attitude Magazine.
The drag superstars, who both made their Drag Race US debuts in season four, will be joining Britain’s Got Talent 2020 semi-finalist and British comedy queen Myra Dubois when the show returns for an eight-week run at the Garrick Theatre in London from May 19 – July 11.
Latrice and Willam are taking over for fellow Drag Race alum Monét X Change and Courtney Act who starred in the premiere in December of 2020 before pandemic lockdown restrictions forced the show to go black for the time being. Now, it’s coming back with a new set of our favorite queens!
“I cannot WAIT to be making my debut on London’s West End in Death Drop!,” exclaims Latrice. This is just beyond any dream I could have even conceived of when I was a boy in Compton, California.”
She continues: “And to get to come out of an entire year in lockdown and step into such a major production is a very welcome change. It gives me hope that the world is going to get back to ‘normal’ and when I can finally get on a stage again, I’m gonna tear it up! I miss connecting with a live audience so much, and getting to do it with my good Judy, Willam, makes it even more special.”
“I’m excited to be in the West End with my breast friend Latrice Royale in Death Drop, a spectacular drag musical murder mystery,” says Willam. No spoilers please (I DID IT).”
“Rejoice! I, Myra DuBois (off the telly), am making my long-anticipated West End debut!,” exclaims Myra duBois.
“People forget that as well as a globally revered singer, poet, muse, wellness facilitator, energy worker and empath; I’m also an actress. Award-winning, actually. What an honour it is to be able to swoop in and save this little show. I can’t wait to meet my supporting cast.”
Death Drop drops back into London’s Garrick Theatre from May 19 – July 11. Tickets are on sale now!
