About the Project

RealQueerStories in collaboration with Asylum, One City One Pride and the City of West Hollywood presents #LastDance. A show within a show where things get real once the makeup comes off. When queens are brought together for a memorial, that’s when the truth comes out how they ended up in Los Angeles, how they really feel about drag, each other and themselves. It’s BOYS IN THE BAND meets TORCH SONG TRILOGY with a little PARIS IS BURNING thrown in! #LastDance with make audiences rethink what really is behind the wigs, makeup and heels and find out they are people just like them.

‘This event is presented as part of the City of West Hollywood’s One City One Pride LGBTQ Arts Festival, which this year celebrates the theme ‘Go West’ which celebrates the current and historic waves of immigration to West Hollywood. Events take place from Harvey Milk Day (May 22) through the end of June Pride month.  For more info and to see a full roster of events please visit www.weho.org/pride or follow on social media @WeHoArts.’
