Show
Hedda Lettuce "Gives Great Hedda"
more info
"HEDDA LETTUCE, six-time Drag Queen of the Year Award-winner (HX magazine) and the legendary "green goddess" of drag, will glamorize another winter in Puerto Vallarta as she dishes out a tossed salad of improvisational comedy, sultry songs, and dazzling gowns." -Act II Stages-
9:30 pm Every Thursday, Friday
until 31 May @ Act II Stages
"It's entirely fat-free! She tosses out a night of storytelling, ribald stand-up comedy, and live (not lip-synched) singing. Her show includes her nationally-acclaimed original comedic music that is peppered with parodies of old time favorites and startling satire. Expect a night of side-splitting laughter from Hedda Lettuce, one of New York City's premiere drag queens." -Act II Stages

Special Event
Film Screening and Q&A
more info
Film Screening followed by Q&A with Teresa Delfín & Dafne Estrada. “I became her sister”. The story of a mexican girl in a journey to turn into the woman she always dreamed of.
7:00 pm 27 May @ Act II Stages
Dafne’s story is personal and very porwerful. Her experience is an illustration of the life of many LGBT people in Bahía de Banderas, a region in Mexico where natives insist that discrimination based on gender identity or sexuality has never been a cultural value. This is a story of love, acceptance, self-realization and transition made in a way that is true to the regional culture and family ties. “I Became Her Sister” is located within the broader LGBT culture, bringing to light the regional diversity of Mexico in the approaches of gender and sexuality. (In Spanish with English subtitles.)

7:00 pm 30 May @ Act II Stages
7:00 pm 2 June @ Act II Stages
irst performed in Brazil as “Novicas Rebeldes,” this version of “Nunsense” premiered in New York in 1998. Receiving rave reviews and standing ovations, subsequent productions have boasted such stars as “Laugh-In’s,” Arte Johnson, as Mother Superior, and Olympic Champion, Greg Louganis, as Sister Robert Anne. A whole new layer of comedy surfaces with lines, such as “The guys in the old neighborhood still can’t believe I became a nun!” To quote the New York Times: “A change of habit, boy oh, boy!”
