Flying Saucers!
Backstabbing Bitches!
Muscle Hunks and Men in Pumps!
Wake up and smell the alien invasion in this outrageous comedy by the author of the smash off-Broadway hit The Crumple Zone
"What's funnier than a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist investigating reports of flying saucers in the mysterious swamplands of Lizard Lick, Florida - the hickest hick-town in all of America? Not much!
Unless, perhaps, you cast a man in drag, add a boozing ex-husband, a nemesis/rival reporter, to boot!
Mix in clever one-liners, a candy-colored design, and enough boy-toy eye-candy to fill a giant's Halloween sack, and you've got one hell of a show!
You might want see it twice. I missed some lines, here and there, as I was still belly-laughing from some previous ones" ~ nytheatre.com
"Drag heaven on Earth ... Devil Boys is a riot" ~ The New York Times

"One of the funniest shows I've seen in a long time ... filled from beginning to end with untold and unlimited surprises" ~ Oscaremoore.com
