WHO SAYS HISTORY IS A DRAG?

Was one of New York's first governors a drag queen? This satirical romp is a fictionalized account of the events surrounding Lord Cornbury's rule of New York and New Jersey, and the rumors regarding his cross-dressing.

With wit, beautiful language, and music, CORNBURY: THE QUEEN'S GOVERNOR celebrates the ongoing cultural diversity and vitality of the Big Apple.

Don't miss Theatre Askew's world premiere production of Cornbury: The Queen's Governor co-written by Tony and Pulitzer Prize nominee William M. Hoffman (As Is; Ghosts of Versailles) and Anthony Holland. Starring David Greenspan and Everett Quinton. Directed by Tim Cusack.
