Jinkx Monsoon, a two-time winner of RuPaulsDragRace, will make her Broadway debut this January as Matron ‘Mama’ Morton in the long-running ‘Chicago’
Monsoon’s eight-week engagement begins Monday, January 16, and runs through Sunday, March 12 at the Ambassador Theatre. Producers announced the casting today, noting that Monsoon will be the first drag queen to play the role on Broadway.
“I cannot stress enough that this has been a lifelong dream of mine,” Monsoon said in a statement. “To be making my Broadway debut, as my favorite role, in one of my favorite shows— that lifelong dream is coming true and then some. The first number I performed in drag was ‘All That Jazz,’ so this feels almost too serendipitous. But I never question my blessings, I just thank Hecate for them.
As Mama Morton, Monsoon, who has released three albums, will perform one of the highlights of the show’s Kander and Ebb score, “When You’re Good to Mama.”
