World premier of a new musical inspired by trans icon and Warhol superstar, Holly Woodlawn debuts at Brighton Fringe in June.
Inspired by the real life of late Warhol Superstar, Holly Woodlawn, HIGH AS SUGAR is a new one-person musical about a trans woman in 1970, New York City.
Tanner Efinger is a “highly talented performer” *****Fringe Guru, 2015
Join Sugar as she transports you to her world of underground parties, unlawful indulgence, art-pop, Vaseline and glitter. Sugar lives shamelessly and is adored unreservedly. But when the lights come up, and the glitter fades, is Sugar’s celebration just a mirage?

Written and performed by Tanner Efinger; directed by Lizzy McBain; composed by Matt Winkworth; movement direction by Emma Webb; set and design by Suzie Burlton.
