DRAG MESSIAH by CREATINE PRICE. Back by divine demand, Drag Messiah returns for its second glorious season at Red Eye NY: a dazzling reimagining of Handel's Messiah where the sacred meets the sensational. Conceived and hosted by Creatine Price, New York City's resident opera diva, this production fuses the grandeur of baroque oratorio with the wit, glamour, and heart of contemporary drag performance. Audiences are invited into a space of both reverence and revelry, where world-class classical musicians share the stage with bold drag artists to celebrate joy, community, and transformation. The result is an evening of exquisite musicianship, theatrical flair, and unapologetic celebration — a Messiah unlike any other.
