Illusions

Illusions is back for it's 3rd season. One of Provincetown's longest running and most popular drag shows, Illusions stars three P-Town legends – Miss Tisch DeWilliams, Billie Jean, and Felicity Layne.

Illusions is a classic high camp comedy drag revue... with a little something for everyone - young and old, gay and straight, and everything in between! From humor to celebrity impersonations to fierce musical numbers, the divas of Illusions will have you on your feet, hands in the air, and laughing 'till it hurts. Don't miss your chance to see three of America's top female impersonators on one stage. Illusions is truly a Provincetown institution!

Meet the Girls of "Illusions"
A veteran of the stage for over thirty years, Tisch DeWilliams (aka Will Hinton), has been performing in plays and dance troupes all around the country but is best known for his outstanding drag performances. The winner of several pageants, Tisch DeWilliams is currently the co-owner of Miss Gay Massachusetts US of A. A true showgirl... Miss Tisch is a must-see performer this season!

Billie Jean began her career in the art of female impersonation many years ago and has since travelled the country competing in pageants on both the local and national level. She holds several prestigious titles including her favorite, Miss Gay Massachusetts US of A - of which she is now the co-owner. One of the original cast members of Illusions, Billie Jean is thrilled to be back in Provincetown where, during the days, she can also be found at Snip Salon where she enjoys making people look their very best.

Felicity Layne (aka Davion Edwards) 'accidentally' began a career in the art of female impersonation in 1989 after winning a Best Drag Contest in New Haven, CT. As Felicity, he went on to win numerous pageants in New Haven, the South Shore, and Boston. In 1997, Felicity was crowned here at the Crown and Anchor as Miss Massachusetts US of A. Since 1997, Davion has continued to perfect and hone his skills as a female illusionist and entertainer here in Provincetown, starring in and emceeing several drag reviews including Mirage, Big Boned Barbies, Ma Vie En Rouge, Fired Up, and was recently featured in the local documentary film "Showgirls." Felicity has also donated her time, energy, and talent by helping to raise money for various nonprofit AIDS and women's organizations including SuitAbility in Lowell, MA and Helping Our Women in Provincetown. Felicity Layne says, "I'm addicted to glamour!" and she often jokes, "if glamour were an Olympic sport, "I'd be a multi-gold medalist!" She feels privileged and blessed to be a part of Illusions.
