Remember this summer when we sold out of tickets 2 weeks before the show? You're not gonna want to miss this new face on the Marshall drag stage. Get your tickets today to come meet Dexter Maine-Love!

Dexter Maine-Love was a mild mannered college student when he stumbled into Doctor Emmet Brown’s laboratory and was mistaken for a test subject. He was transformed into a human cartoon and began to join Doc and Marty McFly on their adventures through time. On their way to 2015, there was a mechanical failure which caused Dexter to be ejected from the DeLorean and he landed in 2007. Now he entertains crowds with his own brand of comedy and goofy antics on stage as a cast member of Dragged Out and a producer of Fusion Cabaret.
