Joey Arias is a New York based performance artist, cabaret singer, and drag queen. After singing in Rock Bands, he became a Groundling, then became well know in the NY performance/club scene on the 1970s and 1980s, based on his talent for "channeling" Billie Holiday. He has recorded many albums of his music and famously played Joan Crawford in Christmas at the Crawford's; he is also well-known to independent-film audiences in such films as Mondo New York and Wigstock: The Movie. His most recent work was his role as Mistress of Seduction in Zumanity, an adult themed show for Cirque du Soleil. His latest act with Basil Twist, Arias with a Twist (June 12 - July 13, 2008), represents his return to New York performing after a hiatus of several years.
