Overview

Written and Performed by Panti Bliss
Directed by Phillip McMahon
Produced by Jennifer Jennings and Laura Rigney
Co-directors, THISISPOPBABY Jennifer Jennings and Phillip McMahon

After a lifetime of accidental activism, far-fetched shenanigans and making a full time show of herself, notorious drag queen Panti Bliss—the “Queen of Ireland”—is now taking a moment to question her purpose and place in this changing world. 

Expect salacious stories, impassioned polemics, and some seriously funny soul searching as Panti takes us from rural Mayo to London’s West End, where along the way the answer to her question presents itself where she least expects it.
