It's out! The New York Times write-up by Laura Collins-Hughes with photography by Dina Litovsky @dina_litovsky is out and absolutely dazzling.
"“Everything would melt away when Joey would take the microphone,” Twist said. “I was dumbstruck.”"
"“He (Mugler) said, ‘The strongest look for you is naked,’” Arias said. “So I always try to stay as nude as possible.”"
"“Drag Race” aesthetic has nothing to do with what Arias is up to. His own objective is “all about silhouette and soul.”"
"The puppets and scenery are where the chimerical extravagance comes in: hovering space aliens; a vine-dripping jungle; some horned red devils, very generously endowed."

So Happy to see all the wonderful press this week for Arias with a Twist from the New York Times , V Magazine, Playbill and more! It is truly magical and magnificent that this amazing production has returned to the stage after 18 years. It seems even more meaningful to see the show during these times of chaos and AI to have a handmade production created in both Love and Magic!
I am so honored that my portraits for the show from 18 years ago and from today are being featured in all this press! Woo Hoo!
