Act2PV is thrilled that Edie, former host of Cirque du Soliel’s ZUMANITY and star of Las Vegas’ FAAABULOUS, returns to Act2PV this season! This grand dame of Las Vegas drag queens… a tall, slender chanteuse, with long, well-toned legs… will give you a taste of Las Vegas burlesque! She sings! She dances! She shocks! But one thing for sure is that, as Edie floats around the stage clad in her black negligee and trademark bouffant wig, she will add a ladylike touch to the sexually-charged atmosphere. She is a master at chatting with the audience ad-lib and wrangling some of them onto the stage for some fun antics. An evening with Edie will be remembered for a lifetime!
