SUMMARY:Ophelia's Jump presents The Slow Drag\, a jazz musical by Carson Kreitzer
DESCRIPTION:The Slow Drag-- a jazz musical by Carson Kreitzer\n\nDirected by Sheila Malone\n\nThe Slow Drag is the unique story of Johnny Christmas\, a jazz musician\, his wife June Wedding\, a sultry and sexy torch singer and their best friend Chester Kent\, a singer\, dancer and pianist.\n\nInspired by the real-life story of jazz musician Billy Tipton who upon his death in 1989 was discovered to have been a biological woman\, unbeknownst to his wives and three adopted sons. \n\nJohnny harbours a dark secret. In order to play the music he loves\, Johnny has to pass himself off as a man. This is a charade he keeps up for the duration of his life and shares with no one but June\, not even to his and June's three sons. It's a charade that ultimately kills Johnny.\n\nMeanwhile\, Chester\, like Johnny\, is also leading a double life. As a bi-racial man he has found that many doors are shut to him. If Chester denies his heritage and passes himself off as a playboy with a  tan\, he can play music in "White Only" establishments. If not\, he's out of work. Like Johnny\, he chooses the lie.\n\nThe Slow Drag is a fascinating story of three individuals who lived and lied for their music.\n\n\n\nOPHELIA'S JUMP WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO A JAZZ CLUB SETTING FOR THIS EXCITING EVENT
