“A blend of boldness and vulnerability…A struggle between two ideals of love and sex—generational struggles…incredibly universal.” –Feinstein’s/54 Below Producers on Mother Mary

“Come, or I’ll kick your ass.” –Mary Michelson

Back from her world tour of Boston, Meagan Michelson returns to Feinstein’s/54 Below with her hit cabaret, Mother Mary Says to Me, a story about her clumsy quest toward finding the meaning of love and sexuality, translated through her mother Mary’s Bostonian, Irish Catholic sensibility. Like a delicate friggin’ lotus floating in a pool of Smirnoff, Mary has offered beauty where it’s least expected, and Meagan is here to belt about it. Hailed by audiences as “a future gay icon” and a “drag queen with a uterus,” Meagan takes the stage alongside the inimitable Matt Lowy on piano. Musical styles range from the Beatles to Ethel Merman. It’ll be wicked pissah.
