The Legend of Georgia McBride will have its West End premiere at @sohoplace next year, opening on 2 February and running through 15 May 2027.

The new comedy is written by Tony and Olivier Award winner Matthew López (The Inheritance) and directed by Tony Award nominee Stevie Walker-Webb (Ain’t No Mo’), with global drag superstar Monét X Change playing Tracy.

The show follows struggling Elvis impersonator Casey, who is performing at a small-town American bar and has his world turned upside down when his act is replaced by a drag show. Under the guidance of drag queen Miss Tracy Mills, Casey transforms into the dazzling and confident Georgia McBride.

López said" “I’m delighted to return to the West End next year and share this play with London audiences. I’m especially excited to be working with Monét and Stevie, whose combined talents could power a midsize city.”

Monét X Change said: "Eeek! I’m so unbelievably excited to make my West End debut in The Legend of Georgia McBride. When I first sat down for the table read, I manifested this moment and it’s now my reality. It’s my absolute honour and pleasure to bring Miss Tracy Mills to life as we both know how to find a diamond in the rough and make it sparkle, darling. I did it for Bob the Drag Queen and I’ll do it for Georgia!"

The creative team also includes designer Fly Davis, with further creatives to be announced.
