Charles Busch’s campy, darkly comedic Off-Broadway theatrical slasher 'Die Mommie Die!' turned the stage of New World Stages into a hilarious crucible of pop-culture parody in 2007. The pitch-black psychological thriller tracks Angela Arden, a fading, murderous Greek-tragedy style pop diva trapped inside an opulent Beverly Hills mansion, who poisons her tyrannical husband with an arsenic-laced suppository, collapsing into farcical chaos as her rebellious children launch a twisted blackmail scheme to expose her crime. Directed by Carl Andress, the tour-de-force production starred Busch drag-portraying Angela alongside Bob Ari and Chris Sarandon.
