RuPaul’s Drag Race alum Willam has joined the cast of the Off-Broadway musical Titanique and we have the first photos of the star on stage as Victor Garber! Willam is best known for appearing on season four of Drag Race back in 2012 and for making a memorable appearance in Lady Gaga‘s A Star Is Born movie.

Titanique is billed as an “irresistibly funny and irreverent new musical send-up of the blockbuster film Titanic, featuring the songs of pop icon Celine Dion.” Here is the official synopsis: “Want to find out what really happened to Jack and Rose on that fateful night?

Just leave it to Céline Dion to casually hijack a Titanic Museum tour and enchant the audience with her totally wild take, recharting the course of Titanic’s beloved moments and characters with her iconic song catalog.” Willam joined the cast as Victor Garber in early September and comedian Drew Droege also just joined cast in the role of Ruth. “Boarding Titanique has been nothing but smooth sailing, and that’s probably from all the wonderful Celine Dion music we’re privileged to sing each night,” Willam said in a statement. “This boat is stocked with quintuple-threat performers who are CPR-certified due to the fact that audiences are constantly gagging at the hilarity – and how cold the drinks are from hitting an iceberg every night!

Captaining this shit eight times a week is a joy, and a decade after Drag Race, I finally get to prove that my boat IS pretty, and my boat is the best.” Titanique is being performed at the Daryl Roth Theatre in New York City’s Union Square.
