‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’: 5 Rusicals We’d Like to See in Upcoming Seasons


With the Rusical format here to stay on 'RuPaul's Drag Race,' here are five Rusicals we would love to see in future seasons.

Throughout the numerous permutations of the challenge, the plot structures used for each Rusical have varied — some seasons employed entirely original creations, while others adapted the life stories of pop divas, historical figures, politicians and reality television stars to create a musical narrative. A classic story of a woman being transformed from street urchin to high-society socialite, the plot of My Fair Lady is practically perfect in every way (to quote another Julie Andrews character) for a short, sweet parody. Make a few cosmetic changes — perhaps Audrey II is a murderous wig instead of a man-eating plant, and Seymour works as a hapless hairstylist rather than a bumbling botanist — and you’ve got a killer challenge on your hands (in the most literal sense).
