TAYLOR RATLIFF / PLASMA

Taylor Ratliff is a actor, singer and drag performer.

Taylor appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16, winning the RDR Live acting/singing episode and the iconic Rusical episode, it’s no surprise BroadwayWorld has dubbed Plasma “the new Broadway baby of RuPaul's Drag Race!"

Related to her run on the show, Plasma has produced two epic full-scale production music videos. The first video is a take-off on the "Don't Rain on My Parade” scenes from the movie Funny Girl, set to Plasma’s own soaring cover of her favorite Barbra Streisand song. Plasma’s cover is available on Spotify, Apple Music and other music streaming platforms. The second video is a set to a new remix of "Bloody Mary" by Lady Gaga, her elimination song on Drag Race. Plasma wanted to reclaim the song and show range outside of her usual glamorous old-Hollywood esthetic, using her goth runway look with a nod to Macbeth. Both videos can be seen on Plasma’s YouTube.

Plasma’s most recent production is “All That Plazz,” a live-singing cabaret with the Benjamin Young Quintet which has played in the historic McKittrick Hotel and Laurie Beechman Theater in New York City, as well as The Art House in Provincetown, MA.
