Neil D'Astolfo's Mister Miss America completes its world premiere run at Off-Broadway's Rattlestick Playwrights Theater August 7. Written and performed by D'Astolfo, the extended run officially opened July 11.

D'Astolfo plays Derek Tyler Taylor, who is ready to claw his way to the top of the competition at the 86th Annual Miss Southwestern Virginia Pageant. But victory is hard-won, and Derek has to decide how far he'll go to earn the crown.

“It’s truly a dream to be returning to the stage with something so near and dear (and queer),” said D’Astolfo in an earlier statement. “This character is very much the fierce and fearless friend or older cousin I wish I’d had growing up, and I’m so grateful to AFO for the opportunity to share his story and sensibility."

D'Astolfo developed Mister Miss America through the AFO Solo Collective. The production by All For One Theater is presented by special arrangement with Rattlestick Playwrights Theater.
