Peaches Christ, a direct descendant of Jesus,
is an underground drag phenomenon, emcee, filmmaker, actor, and part time cult-leader. Ms. Christ currently resides in San Francisco where her Backlash Production Company and Midnight Mass movie series are based. Her Midnight Mass road-show and Short Film Retrospective have been on tour and appeared in Seattle, Berkeley, New York City, and Brussels Belgium.

Midnight Mass with your hostess Peaches Christ
is San Francisco’s hugely popular midnight movie event. It began in the chilly summer of 1998. The elaborate pre-show stage productions, guest stars, and drag spectacles continue to draw sell-out crowds. Whether Ms. Christ is naked and exploding from a volcano, refereeing drag queen roller-derby, or interviewing special guests Mink Stole, Tura Satana, Mary Woronov, or Elvira, a good time is had by all.

Peaches Christ has appeared on national television including VH1’s Totally Gay, AMC’s Movies That Shook the World: Pink Flamingos, and IFC’s Cult Movie pilot.

Peaches stars in a number of short films
written and directed by her alter-ego Joshua Grannell. Peaches’ short film collection is now on DVD. It features the “Tran-ilogy of Terror” which chronicles the real life horror stories of Peaches and pals. The films Season of the Troll, A Nightmare On Castro Street, and Whatever Happened to Peaches Christ? have become international hits at film festivals and on cable television. The DVD also includes Joshua’s short film Grindhouse; a gore comedy currently being developed into a feature-length film to be shot in the Bay Area.

Peaches Christ co-produces the SF Underground Short Film Festival with local macabre snob Vinsantos. The fest is designed to showcase outrageously talented and often overlooked Bay Area Filmmakers. In 2005, Peaches released her debut CD single Idol Worship. Peaches continues to appear on the wildly successful Trannyshack stage where she got her start back in 1996. Ms. Christ regularly emcees the show when hostess Heklina needs the night off.
