Drag Race icon Miz Cracker to star in European premiere of WHO'S HOLIDAY this Christmas

Drag Race US icon Miz Cracker will star in the European debut of Who’s Holiday by Matthew Lombardo at Southwark Playhouse from 7 December 2022-7 January 2023, it has been announced.

This wildly funny and heartfelt adults-only comedy, based on the Dr Seuss classic festive tale The Grinch, enjoyed a critically acclaimed run off Broadway in 2017.

Presented by TuckShop and Jack Maple and directed by Kirk Jameson, Who’s Holiday will also play at Home in Manchester from 30 November to 4 December prior to its 5-week London run.

Who’s Holiday tells the story of Cindy Lou Who as she recalls that Christmas Eve she first met the Grinch and the twisted turn of events her life has now taken…

Miz Cracker said: “I’m thrilled to join Tuckshop for Who’s Holiday this winter. What an honour to make my London acting debut with such a fun concept and company. And what a joy to return to the UK, where I feel so much love every time I visit! I hope everyone has a chance to join us for some big laughs!”

Director Kirk Jameson said: “I’ve admired the creativity and tenacity of Tuckshop for a number of years now and have been keen to find the right kind of project we might collaborate on. Chris’ frankly brilliant idea to combine the nostalgia of Dr Seuss with the global phenomenon that is Drag Race on the U.K. premiere of this brilliant play, was simply impossible to resist. I can’t wait to get started!”
