If you’re not sure the esoteric puppetry of Basil Twist is for you, ease yourself into his current retrospective with a show that’s easy to get your, er, tentacles around.
“Arias With a Twist,” part of the Basil Twist Festival, features New York drag legend Joey Arias in a drag-queen fever dream of his own creation: a glitzy spectacle that imagines Arias as a wayward singer trapped in a surreal universe. The show kicks off at Woolly Mammoth Theatre Thursday.
