The girls return to their favorite Lake Tahoe hotspot for 3 nights of "Things You Shouldn't Say" (smack dab in the middle of their 25th Anniversary run in San Francisco!).
Full Event Calendar
An absolutely unprecedented night of song and unscripted conversation from America's Favorite Dragapella® Beautyshop Quartet. The Kinsey Sicks, who are celebrating their 25th anniversary this fall and marking the retirement of founder Ben Schatz as Rachel, will perform some of their favorite songs from the last quarter century, punctuated with conversation with Kinsey Sicks co-founder and Ner Shalom Spiritual Leader, Reb Irwin Keller. Expect shocking secrets, serious exploration of the group's past and politics, gossip, hopes, regrets, war stories and uncontrollable laughter. A night where anything could happen.
Critics have called the Kinsey Sicks' work “powerful,” “provocative,” “delicious,” “subversive,” and “hilarious." The New York Times praised their "voices sweet as birdsong," and National Public Radio dubbed them "the Royal Shakespeare Company of Drag Performance."
So come join America’s Favorite Dragapella® Beautyshop Quartet as we meet them both onstage and off.

Show DescriptionS
If you love Donald Trump, you’ll hate this show!
This is the remarkable true story of four friends from San Francisco who had a life-changing epiphany at a Bette Midler concert that led to them to form The Kinsey Sicks in an effort to find joy during the darkest days of the AIDS crisis. Now that the era of Trumpism is upon us, they’re sharing their hilarious, inspiring and at times heartbreaking tale, and showing that hatred and deceit can be fought with humor and heart.
This show was a smash hit Off-Broadway at New York’s fabled SoHo Playhouse. Critics have described the show as “powerful,” “provocative,” “delicious,” “subversive,” “hilarious,” “stirring,” “exquisite,” “electric,” “outrageous," “heartbreaking," “brave,” “mesmerizing,” “flawless,” “superb," "incredibly moving,” ”inventively diabolical,” “riotously funny,” "vitally significant,” “an absolute must watch," and "theater at its BEST"!
So come join America’s Favorite Dragapella® Beautyshop Quartet as they lead us all in resisting these new dark times with laughter, integrity, and heroically high hair in an unforgettable new musical exploring Trumpism, racism, AIDS, extreme macramé, oblong vegetables and, of course, Bette Midler.
The girls try to sell off their manger--yes, that manger--before it's foreclosed upon. Crises arise, secrets are revealed, Jewish-Gentile tensions surface, and mayhem ensues--all in glorious four-part harmony.
Oy Vey boasts The Kinsey Sicks reinterpretations of holiday classics, such as "God Bless Ye Femmy Lesbians," "Satan Baby", and "I'm Dreaming of a Vanna White Christmas", plus hilarious Jewish satiric fare, including "Don't Be Happy, Worry," the Chanukah spa classic "I Had a Little Facial" and, of course, the requisite and new Christmas cuisine standard, "Soylent Night."
