From the writing team that brought you last year's smash FAT ASSES: THE MUSICAL comes the revamped musical/comedy sensation PARKER & DIZZY'S FABULOUS JOURNEY TO THE END OF THE RAINBOW. After a successful run at the New York International Fringe Festival and Encores Series in 2011, this hilariously campy, sci-fi-action-adventure is described as a saucy foursome between The Wizard of Oz, Star Wars, Thelma & Louise and a "gay" Da Vinci Code...but instead of revolving around Jesus, it's JUDY!

With book & lyrics by actor-director-playwright Peter Zachari and lyrics/music composed by singer-songwriter Damon Maida, this revamped version premieres six brand new songs. Take an adventurous ride on a disco schtick of mystery, music and amusement in a journey to connect-the-dots between pop icons, from Liza Minnelli and Joan Crawford to recent pop idols.

PARKER & DIZZY'S FABULOUS JOURNEY TO THE END OF THE RAINBOW follows an unlikely daring duo; Parker, a curious assistant to the stars, and the adorably spunky choreographer, Dizzy. When their boss, famed drag-songstress Victoria Luster, winds up mysteriously murdered in her dressing room, the twosome are not only shocked, but are actually questioned as suspects! Their only hope is a cryptic message uttered by the dying diva. Unbeknownst to them, they are about to embark on a mind-altering, secret-unveiling journey, encountering drag queens, clones, dead bodies and a menacing villainess, questioning not only their own reality, but also their friendship, culture and life purpose! Songs will include "GPeniS," "Hail the Queens," "Don't Even Think About It," "Hero of This Dream," "The Troll Song," "What Makes a Friend" and more.

Returning cast members Peter Zachari (Parker), Joey Mirabile (Dizzy) and Sam Given (aka Millie Grams) are joined by NYC comedian and drag personality Marti Gould Cummings, Eric Byrer, Kasidy Devlin, Solomon Kee, Scott Salame and Jacob Storms.
