There’s Always Time for a Cocktail is true life story of little Eddie Popil’s transformation from a young boy in Scranton, PA, to “International Celebrity Housewife, Mrs. Kasha Davis.” Join the ultimate hostess for an evening of music, stories, and party games with a heartfelt story of love, acceptance and finding your own path.
Having gained national notoriety on Season Seven of the standard Drag Race competition in 2015, Davis realized that fame came with responsibility, which included getting sober for her, her husband’s, and her children’s sakes. Not to mention the sake of this “brand” that Popil had created. And also for her fans, who stretch—proverbially, of course—from eight to 80. Davis started appearing at Drag Story Hours at Rochester’s Blackfriars Theatre and has been a strong proponent of the way these events can help children experience the joy of reading (which is fundamental, after all), and helping them explore their imaginations. To that end, with the help of Danny Hoskins, now an assistant professor at SUNY Brockport, and Mary Tiballi Hoffman, from Blackfriars, Davis has created a television show, Imagination Station, and has had conversations with various networks and streaming platforms regarding airing the series.
In addition to the November performances, Davis will be an artist-in-residence in the Department of Theatre and Music studies during the 2023-24 academic year. In fact, Popil will be starring in the department’s production of The Prom in April 2024. We hope to see you then.
This engagement of There’s Always Time for a Cocktail is sponsored by SUNY Brockport’s School of Arts and Sciences, School of Business and Management, Department of English, Department of Theatre and Music Studies, Department of Women and Gender Studies, Academic Success Center, Center for Gender and Sexual Diversity, Emerging Scholars Program, and Honors College.
