A drag creation of actor, singer, host Ray DeForest, Doris was born in the wake of Ray’s beloved mother, Taffy, succumbing to the dreaded Alzheimers Disease. Artistically developed as a way to feel close with Taffy, Deforest performs to honor her memory, and brighten the lives of his audiences with a little laughter, a little song, and a lot of whiskey sours.

This week Doris Dear welcomes into the Rumpus Room Karen Mason, star of 8 Broadway shows!! Doris and the “Diva” hang in the Rumpus Room and chat about life, artistry and Karen shares some backstage stories. Hear how her first show closed opening night and how it all went down and the gift she still has from that opening.

These are the artists who help the artists. They make sure the person standing on the stage can relax and focus on the storytelling, instead of all the other details, and without them a lot of people would be lost.
