Bringing together classic music lovers and drag lovers into one room, Thorgy and the Thorchestra will make its U.S. premiere with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra June 27.
The Heinz Hall show will bring Thorgy Thor, famed worldwide from the hit shows “RuPaul’s Drag Race” and “Drag Me Down the Aisle,” and the symphony together for hilariously theatrical show.
Tickets go on sale on 10 a.m. March 29 and range from $35-$150.
Known as the reigning, “Queen of Classical Music, Thorgy (THOR-jee) Thor will wields her “outrageous fashion sense, razor-sharp wit and virtuoso classical chops.” The show is expected to combine live violin and cello from Thorgy, the symphony, “kooky ideas” and an eclectic set list derived from compositions spanning hundreds of years, according to the PSO.
“I can’t wait to bring my Thorchestra to Pittsburgh,” said Thor in a special video message she shared with audiences on the symphony’s Facebook page. “We’re going to do a sing-along. I think I’ll do a walk-off with a live orchestra playing. Sounds like a lot of fun – I can’t wait to see you there!”
This performance will include some mature themes; audience discretion is advised.
