A Star is Aborted: The Chicago Return of Maureen SanDiego
Maureen brings her critically acclaimed Hollywood Fringe show A Star is Aborted to Chicago! This is a boundary-pushing cabaret satire written by Chicago’s premiere “female female impersonator,” Maureen SanDiego. The premise is a John Waters–inspired fever dream:
A drag queen fetus becomes the first baby conceived inside a gay man. Will she choose life—or remain in butthole limbo forever?
This outrageous musical explores sexual freedom, fame, and queerness through grotesque glamour, powerhouse vocals, and non-stop absurdity. Think: Divine meets Weird Al in a Planned Parenthood parking lot.
“You have the right to choose…so choose to see this show immediately!”
