New Year's Eve is the birthday of Special Agent Galactica, the performance art drag persona of local gay actor Jeffrey Johnson. So despite logistical hurdles, she's not letting the occasion pass un-noted.

"The Only Gal in Town," Galactica's cabaret act with musical wiz Christopher Wingert, is Dec. 31 at 8 p.m. at Go Mama Go!, the 14th Street shop where Ganymede Arts, the region's only LGBT arts organization, hosted recent productions of "Falsettos" and "Edie Beale LIVE at Reno Sweeney."

[...]

Johnson has never gotten too wrapped up in notions of female illusion. It's more about toying with notions of gender than trying to make people forget Galactica is played by a man. Subsequently he'll be using his own vocal register in the show, not aping a higher female range.
