Heartbeat Opera presents our 10th Annual Drag Extravaganza, a hilarious, irreverent party at the bold intersection of drag and opera! ORGY & BESS takes off from Porgy and Bess, but goes on to skewer the entire opera canon. What happens to Bess after Porgy? She stumbles from the 1920s into 2025 NYC, and the first person she meets is Cio-Cio-San from Madama Butterfly. Then it's Lucia from Lucia di Lammermoor. As more characters travel through the magical glory hole, the orgy heats up, and Bess learns about the trap of being a trope. Together with her new sisterhood, she takes a journey to radical self-love through a whirlwind of arias and numbers from Madama Butterfly, Turandot, Norma, Lucia, Carmina Burana, Lohengrin, The Mikado, The Wiz, Rent, and more!
