Alexis Michelle, a downtown Manhattan-born drag star, recording artist and activist, is ready for her long-awaited debut at a downtown Manhattan institution.
Next week, the 39-year-old performer — and competitor on season 8 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race: All Stars” — will delight music lovers and drag fans alike when she performs June 27-28 at Joe’s Pub, the famed East Village venue known for its eclectic-cool programming.
While Michelle is certainly no stranger to the New York City stage — her resume includes shows at some of the city’s best-known cabaret venues such as Don’t Tell Mama and Café Carlyle — she says bringing her music to Joe’s Pub, a performance space within the Public Theater, feels like destiny.
