    Bob the Drag Queen Promises to Be ‘Spectacular, Spectacular’ With Broadway Debut in ‘Moulin Rouge’

    Bob the Drag Queen has had a very good last few years. But the latest development in the drag star’s career promises to be spectacular, spectacular!

    On Friday (Sept. 19), the producers of Moulin Rouge! The Musical announced that Bob will make his Broadway debut in the Tony Award-winning show for a limited eight week engagement. Taking over the role of Harold Zidler, the vaudevillian emcee of the titular club in the show, Bob is set to begin performances on Jan. 27, 2026.

    In a statement released alongside the news, Bob shared his excitement at getting to finally appear on the Great White Way. “Being on Broadway has always been a dream of mine,” he said. “I moved to NYC almost 17 years ago to pursue it. Some roads take a while.”

    That particular road has been paved with plenty of success for the performer — after taking home the crown on season 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, Bob has since gone on to sell out multiple stand-up comedy tours, wrote and released a New York Times bestselling novel with Harriett Tubman: Live in Concert and even traveled the world as the emcee and special guest for pop superstar Madonna’s Celebration Tour.

    Most recently, Bob appeared on the Emmy Award-winning third season on The Traitors, where he famously competed as one of the titular robed villains, attempting to eliminate fellow contestants like Gabby Windey, Dylan Efron, Dorinda Medley and more. After fans grew upset that Bob led the charge on eliminating Real Housewives stars Medley and Chanel Ayan, Bob made it clear that he would not apologize for his actions. “Do these Housewife fans think I’m scared?” he wrote. “Honey, I survived Drag Race Twitter. At least DR fans tweet from their real profiles.”
