Mommie Queerest by Buffalo United Artists July 12 - August 4

THE B!TCH IS BACK!

Buffalo United Artists presents Jimmy Janowski in the hysterical camp send up MOMMIE QUEEREST by Jamie Morris, July 12 to August 4, 2019, Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 7pm. The production is directed and designed by Todd Warfield and also stars Michael Blasdell, Michael Seitz, and Christopher Standart. The production was originally presented in 2012 and has been remounted with the original cast.

NO WIRE HANGERS… EVER!

Celebrating over 30 years of MOMMIE DEAREST, this hysterical reinvention of the 1981 biopic is brought to life by this all-drag cast playing over 25 characters. The film, originally a commercial success, yet critical disaster, is known in pop culture as possibly the campiest movie of all time, and has been a queer, cult classic since its release. Based on the bestselling, often disputed, dirt dishing-tell all autobiography by Hollywood Screen Queen Joan Crawford's adopted daughter Christina, it's a horror story of movies, motherhood, and matricide, not to mention a stray wire coat hanger or two.

CHRISTINA! BRING ME THE AXE!

Playwright and performer Jamie Morris has toured MOMMIE QUEEREST throughout the United States and it has played long runs in NYC, Los Angeles, Dallas, Provincetown and Ft. Lauderdale. BUA is proud to bring to Buffalo, this hysterical drag extravaganza starring BUA's leading lady, the Artie Award lifetime Achievement Award winning Jimmy Janowski as Joan Crawford.

BECAUSE… I… AM… NOT… ONE OF YOUR FANS!

THE BUFFALO NEWS called Jimmy Janowski; "One of the funniest men performing on Buffalo stages" and stated "There are certain phenomena Buffalonians must experience in their lifetimes. You have to eat at Mighty Taco. You have to watch the Turkey Trot. And you have to see Jimmy Janowski perform on the Buffalo United Artists stage".

DON'T F*@K WTH ME FELLAS, THIS AIN'T MY FIRST TIME TO THE RODEO

The production team has produced a long string of Artie award nominated summer shows including SILENCE: The Musical, CLEOPATRA, LIMITATION OF LIFE, POSEIDON: The Upside Down Musical, THE BIRDS ATTACK and most recently THE ABSOLUTE BRIGHTNESS OF LEONARD PELKY. MOMMIE QUEEREST promises riotous laughs, drop dead costumes, and bladder leakage pads provided to patrons at the door.
