EDIE - Las Vegas Showgirl: UNLEASHED - DOORS 5PM - SHOWTIME 7PM

Best known for her role as the emcee in Cirque du Soleil’s long-running hit show “Zumanity,” at the NY-NY Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, EDIE performed over 5,600 shows for over 6 million people during her tenure as host. Since the show closed for good during the global pandemic, Edie finds herself a free agent once again and is taking full advantage of her new freedom. After a sold out summer tour ( Portland, OR., Rehoboth Beach, DE., Fire Island, NY,  Provincetown, MA,  Ogunquit, ME ) of her new show “Las Vegas Showgirl: Unleashed,” Edie will perform that show one-night only, Saturday, October 2, at OSCAR’s in Palm Springs.

“UNLEASHED!” tackles “what’s next?” as Edie takes a look back at what lead her from her hometown of Portland, Oregon to the bright lights of New York City,  and eventually to Las Vegas, the Entertainment Capital of the World. The show is a high-energy, high-kickin’ semi-autobiographical look at a performer’s career through song, stories, comedy, videos, and lots of dance!  It’s part tribute to those who have inspired her. Liza. Ann Reinking. Barbra Streisand. It’s also a celebration of a career that led a young dancer to a professional ballet career with 5 companies to a tap company in NYC to her Broadway debut in the ThreePenny Opera at Studio 54 to the host of Cirque du Soleil’s Zumanity for 13 years, and all the gigs along the way.
EDIE began her professional dance career at the age of 18 with Ballet Oregon. For the next eleven years she danced with Pacific Northwest Ballet, Ballet Chicago, and Pennsylvania Ballet before moving to New York to pursue musical theater. EDIE quickly became a fixture in New York City where she racked up a bevy of awards including Best Drag Queen (HX Award), Best Dance Artist and Entertainer of the Year (Glammy Award). She starred in her autobiographical, off-Broadway show “LEGS!,” performed on the MTV Video Music Awards, appeared on “Sex and the City,” was featured at Wigstock and Broadway Bares, and made her Broadway debut alongside Cyndi Lauper and Alan Cumming in the Tony-nominated revival of “The ThreePenny Opera” at Studio 54. The San Francisco Chronicle “strongly advises seeing the incredible EDIE whose talent and legs go on forever.” EDIE currently stars in “Faaabulous! The Show,” where she serves as host/performer/creator/producer in the only live singing drag show in Las Vegas every Friday at Notoriety Live!
