Chicago has produced some incredible talents, and ranking near the top are Alexandra Billings and Honey West. Known so well to Chicago audiences and legends in the LGBTQ+ community, these lifelong friends will create magic on the Mercury Theater Stage for two nights only.

Alexandra Billings: starred in the Amazon TV series “The Peripheral,” and the trailblazing series “Transparent,” as well as having a recurring role on “The Conners,” among many other TV shows. Her credits in film and TV are many, and in theater, she was the first trans actress to play Madame Morrible in Broadway’s “Wicked,” which serves to prove that Alex is forever blazing trails. But her life has not been easy. Told in her gripping autobiography, “ This Time for Me!” which is soon to become a musical for Broadway.

Honey West was recently seen starring in “A Little Night Music,” at Theo Ubique, but also entertained audiences in CLUE and Priscilla Queen of the Desert at Mercury Theater Chicago, La Cage Aux Folles and Irving Berlin’s Holiday Inn. She was a 2012 inductee into the Chiago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame and soon will be seen in an autobiographical one woman show as well as co-starring in FOX, PROVEN INNOCENT.

It’s going to be magic as these two Chicago stars light up the room on the same stage in this joint performance.
