A VIP ticket for preferred seating and a backstage meet and greet is also available for $40. Tickets are available at www.SpinCycleNYC.com. The Laurie Beechman Theatre is located inside West Bank Cafe at 407 West 42nd Street. There is a $25 food/drink minimum at all performances.

Drag queen, actor, comedian, recording artist, writer Pandora Boxx is best known as a contestant on the Emmy winning show RuPaul's Drag Race (Season 2, All Stars S1 and 6).

EW.com said that hers was "the most controversial elimination of the season." Fans voted her "Miss Congeniality" of the show, winning by "a landslide." That popularity lead to becoming a drag professor on RuPaul's Drag U (Season 1 - 3) for which she was voted MVP by fans of the show.

In 2011, Pandora added recording artist to the list releasing the song Cooter! (written with Billboard recording artist Jipsta) which reached 56 on the iTunes dance chart. Following up on that success she released Nice Car!in 2012, I Knew You Seemed Shady, Different, Oops I Think I Pooped and Ridiculous (featured on All Stars 6). Pandora was the creator, writer and star of the public access/internet show The GAY (means happy) SHOW! That show and other work were featured in several film festivals like the ImageOut Gay & Lesbian Film Festival and the Berkeley Film and Video Festival (receiving two honorable mentions). Currently, Pandora is touring the globe spreading giggles, fabulousness and glitter.
