    'RuPaul's Drag Race Live!' will celebrate its 1000th show with a global live stream

    The Las Vegas production is based on the original format of the hit reality show and its current stars including, Asia O'Hara, Ginger Minj, Jaida Essence Hall, Kylie Sonique Love, Morphine Love Dion, and Plane Jane joined on stage by a host of surprise special guests to mark the milestone in March


    World of Wonder co-founders Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato said: "Our 1,000th performance confirms that 'RuPaul's Drag Race Live!' is a must-see experience worthy of Vegas's iconic strip. It is a testament to the charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent of the many queens who have both appeared on the tv show and dazzled audiences from the stage of the legendary Flamingo.

    "We're thrilled to celebrate this milestone on WOW Presents Plus, with a live broadcast of the one thousandth show, and a brand-new season of 'RuPaul's Drag Race Live! Untucked,' taking viewers behind the scenes."

    Following the one-off special, season two of 'RuPaul's Drag Race Live! Untucked' will then air from April 4th, with reigning winner of 'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 16, Nymphia Wind, joining the cast of returning queens: Derrick Barry, Bosco, Lawrence Chaney, Kennedy Davenport, and Latrice Royale.

    Providing backstage coverage will be Cheryl Hole, who found fame on the first series of 'RuPaul's Drag Race' in 2019.

    The six-part series transports viewers backstage of 'RuPaul's Drag Race Live!,' showcasing a heartwarming cast of fan-favorite queens as they reveal the drama, battles and secrets of their daily lives on the Vegas strip.

    The first season premiered in 2024 as WOW Presents Plus's highest-rated original series since the platform's launch in 2017, with the new show praised as an authentic and entertaining look behind the curtain of working drag queens.

    The milestone event will be broadcast live on WOW Presents Plus for fans on March 15 at 4.30am GMT and will then be made permanently available on the platform.
