Leslie Jordan, the actor who won an Emmy Award for his role as Beverly Leslie on Will & Grace, invited audiences to join him on My Trip Down the Pink Carpet. Since then he’s been Exposed and Overexposed. So what’s an actor to do when the holidays roll around? Deck Them Halls Ya’ll of course, which is precisely what he will do this weekend at Chicago Theatre Works when he brings his latest one-man show there.
We don’t know much about the specifics of Deck Them Halls Ya’ll. But an educated guess would find his gay-meets-Southern-gentility view of the holiday season will be blended into an outrageous take on that time of year that makes us all a little crazy. And at 4’11”, he might seem like a perfect candidate to play one of Santa’s elves, but trust me when I tell you there’s no way Jordan will play second fiddle to Santa Claus.
Joining Jordan for tonight’s show (which he will also perform in Chicago on December 20th and 21st), is country music singer Brandon Stansell.
If an irreverent (and possibly a bit naughty and nice) evening of holiday cheer is what you need right now, you’ll probably want to Deck Them Halls tonight with Leslie Jordan.
