The live PlayhouseSquare Feb. 20 performance will be hosted by series judge Michelle Visage and feature Alaska 5000, BenDeLaCreme, Courtney Act, Ivy Winters, Jinkx Monsoon, Raja plus special guest Carey NoKey. The tour line-up will vary by city. Returning to PlayhouseSquare for its second year, the "Battle of the Seasons" is a night of "eleganza," unforgettable music, offbeat and provoked madness with the world's most talented drag performers.

"It has been a joy to see both our amazing TV show and our tours grow bigger every year with all of this immense talent," said Michelle Visage. "Better beware: hide your kids, hide your husbands because with 35 cities, this time we are coming straight to your neighborhood!"

"I'm so excited to be joining the cast of Battle of the Seasons for the upcoming tour," said Bianca Del Rio. "It has been a whirlwind year, and I'm beyond grateful to be given this opportunity. It's always a pleasure to work with my Drag Race 'sisters'."

(The show is produced by Entertainment Group and Sidecar Management, in conjunction with Logo TV and World of Wonder.) Line-up information by city at RuPaulBots.com.
