Drag Performance (Spring 2024)

Deuce S Wilde, Drag Alumni - Spring 2024

Deuce S Wilde is a silly goose with a lot of feelings. Jess Ducey (they/them) is a writer, producer, fundraiser, and occasional clown. They are co-chair of the board of the National Queer Theater, operations manager for Yaa Samar! Dance Theatre, producer of Edu Diaz’s multi-awarded solo show A Drag is Born, and co-producer of Down to Clown, a monthly show for new work development. Jess was a member of Moxie Arts NYC’s Incubator for new work and previously produced two queer musicals in rep at Edinburgh Fringe. They co-founded and directed Queer AF, Wellington, NZ’s first festival of queer art, and created Unfinished Business, an immersive work in which artists shared works in progress over a dinner party in their flat. Their writing has appeared in Radio NZ, Landfall, and off-Broadway in Primary Stages’ Echoes emerging playwrights fellowship. Jess enjoys nature, public transit, books, puppies, cheese, and creating order from chaos.
