TikTok superstar and musical theatre actor Dylan Mulvaney plays with all the labels that land at her door – navigating dating, delusion, and her relationship with God in this new one-woman musical.
Known for joyous TikTok series Days of Girlhood, which channels her transition, Dylan is back at her day job – where it all began – musical theatre. FAGHAG , which is at Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August, is an hour of original musical numbers which chart Dylan’s life where she is now, being friends with Gaga and Rachel Bloom, embracing her authenticity and those friends who have stuck like glue through everything; all while looking inward – celebrating her girlhood and exploring her relationship with God having grown up queer in the Catholic church.
An ex-twink with musical theatre credits including Broadway’s cast for Book of Mormon, Dylan is a bonafide stage star ready to take the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with composers from across Broadway providing original songs and direction from Tim Robinson (Two Strangers, Merrily We Roll Along). Dylan’s most recent stage outing was 365: Live!; to celebrate her first year of transition, Dylan produced a show at the Rainbow Room supporting the Trevor Project and raised nearly $200,000, showcasing her musical talent in a joyous return to the live performance.
Dylan Mulvaney commented: “I am over the moon excited to return back to my theatre roots! FAGHAG is a campy, queer love letter to my younger self, and my way of taking my story off of social media and onto the stage. I have a deep respect for the solo performance art form, and I can’t think of a more iconic place to premiere it than Edinburgh Fringe.”
FAGHAG, which is produced and supported by Seaview, Wessex Grove and AEG presents, is at Edinburgh Fringe Festival from 1 August – 25 August. Tickets HERE
