MISS RICHFIELD 1981 in FALL ON YOUR KNEES
One Night Only! December 20 at The Zipper Factory Theater

Drag legend MISS RICHFIELD 1981 will make her long-awaited, highly-anticipated New York City debut with her annual holiday show FALL ON YOUR KNEES. Written and directed by Russ King, this one night only performance will be held Thursday, December 20 at 7pm at The Zipper Factory Theater (336 West 37th Street, between 8th & 9th Aves -- accessible from the ,C,E trains at 34th Street). Tickets are $20 each, available at 212-352-3101 or thezipperfactory.com. Dinner reservations at The Zipper Factory Tavern are available at 212-695-4600.

FALL ON YOUR KNEES is a holiday-themed evening of homespun warmth, comedy and music from the inimitable MISS RICHFIELD 1981. Some of the highlights include an unforgettable rendition of "Silent Night" played on the saw, a divine Christmas craft project with the audience, and a truly unique version of "Proud Mary" (that would be the Virgin Mary) to celebrate the birth of baby Jesus.

With a unique combination of Midwestern sensibilities and off-the-page humor, MISS RICHFIELD 1981 has quickly become one of America's most beloved drag stars. Her rich history begins with a life-long goal of being crowned beauty queen of her first-ring suburb of Minneapolis (hometown of her creator, Russ King). Since winning the title of Miss Richfield in 1981, she has continued to promote the values and principles of Richfield, Minnesota, "where butter is a spice and gravy is a beverage." As well as performing sell-out performances throughout the country, Miss R has earned a reputation as one of the most successful acts in Provincetown (along with Varla Jean Merman and Dina Martina). Miss R also headlines for Atlantis Events cruises and resort vacations, the largest LGBT vacation company. She has appeared on numerous TV shows including "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and "Today" on NBC. In December, Miss R will christen "The Gem" for Norwegian Cruise Line in Boston and New York. Miss R invites you to join her online at MissRichfield.com, where she keeps a calendar of events and shares words of wisdom, such as her favorite Bible verse: "It's important to be nice, but it's nicer to be important."
