Watch out, you sinners in your cotton-poly blends. The devil's in town, and he's wearing Spanx. He's feeling misunderstood, so he wants to explain his back story and his goal of "Making Hell Great Again." He brought cake.
Fringe veteran Mike Delamont returns to Winnipeg to present a counterpoint to his alter ego, God, the Scottish drag queen. In his snazzy red pullover he admits to more closely resembling political insta-celebrity Ken Bone than Beelzebub, but that's beside the point.
He may never fully escape the judgement of the drag queen deity, but he's hell-bent on telling his side of the story. - Sarah Broadfoot
He's determined to clear up misconceptions about himself, most importantly that he didn't actually "fall" from heaven. He tripped. He may never fully escape the judgement of the drag queen deity, (God even makes a cameo appearance via satellite from Thermea spa), but he's hell-bent on telling his side of the story.

Sympathy for the devil. That's all he wants. And he's willing to show you his best Mick Jagger impression to prove it.
