FROM BERGHAIN TO BROADWAY: Kevin Aviance, Peppermint, Creatine Price, Marti Cummings and Andrew Fuller Make Moves This Fall

NEW YORK, NY — WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2026 — This fall, a dynamic group of Morrison Media Group artists, entertainers and advocates are stepping into major cultural moments across music, nightlife, television, Broadway, sports and HIV policy.

From Kevin Aviance’s return to one of the world’s most influential dance floors and Creatine Price’s San Francisco Symphony debut alongside Orville Peck, to Peppermint’s latest high-visibility cultural moment, Marti Cummings’ growing Broadway orbit, Andrew Fuller’s expanding Food Network run, and Save HIV Funding’s push for stronger representation of people living with HIV in major policy and funding conversations, each offers a timely story — and a distinct point of view worth hearing.

Interviews with talent , commentary and additional materials are available upon request.

KEVIN AVIANCE HEADS TO BERGHAIN, ATL PRIDE, APPLE MUSIC & MORE...

New York nightlife icon and recording artist Kevin Aviance continues a major year of renewed visibility with a run of appearances that spans Berlin, Atlanta and new music.

Aviance will perform at Panorama Bar inside Berlin’s legendary Berghain during Hamam Nights on October 2–3, taking the stage for a 1–3 a.m. set at one of the most influential nightlife institutions in the world.

Just days later, Aviance returns stateside for Atlanta Pride, where he will appear with Horse Meat Disco on October 10.

The run coincides with a new Club Pele club mix, now available on Apple Music, further extending Aviance’s footprint across contemporary dance music and queer nightlife.

Long before today’s mainstream embrace of queer club aesthetics, Aviance helped define the sound, style and attitude of the underground. His latest run offers an opportunity to speak with one of nightlife’s most enduring cultural figures about influence, longevity and what the next generation of club culture is borrowing from the world he helped build.

Kevin Aviance is available for interviews on music, nightlife, queer culture, legacy and the evolution of the dance floor.

CREATINE PRICE JOINS ORVILLE PECK & THE SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY

Creatine Price will perform alongside Orville Peck this December as part of the San Francisco Symphony’s “Holiday Gaiety,” joining conductor Edwin Outwater and San Francisco drag icon Peaches Christ for a distinctly queer take on the holiday tradition.

The appearance marks a major crossover moment for Price, an operatic tenor, drag artist and Drag Race France star whose work sits at the intersection of classical performance, nightlife and contemporary queer culture.

It also reunites Price with Outwater following their previous work together with the BBC Concert Orchestra.

“It means so much to return to San Francisco and to work with Edwin Outwater again after our time together with the BBC Concert Orchestra. I’ve been a fan of Orville Peck for years, so the opportunity to finally work together under such prestigious circumstances, with the San Francisco Symphony, feels incredibly special. San Francisco has such a historic relationship with queer art and community, and sharing this holiday celebration with Orville, Edwin and an icon like Peaches Christ feels like a beautiful way to honor that history while continuing to queer these traditions and make space for all of us within them.”

Price offers a compelling conversation around where drag, opera and classical institutions are increasingly converging — and what it means for queer artists to enter spaces that historically excluded them.

Creatine Price is available for interviews on opera, drag, queer performance, classical music and the evolving boundaries of live entertainment.

PEPPERMINT BRINGS STAR POWER COURTSIDE WITH MICHELLE BUTEAU AT NY LIBERTY

Peppermint brought unmistakable star power to Barclays Center this week alongside actress and comedian Michelle Buteau, as the Survival of the Thickest stars joined the New York Liberty courtside for the team’s September 21 game against the Atlanta Dream.

The pair participated in a courtside “Mic’d Up” moment and quickly became a social media favorite among fans.

The appearance comes during an especially active chapter for Peppermint across television, film and live performance. Her documentary Deeper Love recently earned recognition at the New Fire Island Film Festival, and she continues to explore new opportunities across stage and screen, including a possible return to Broadway.

For Peppermint, these appearances continue a larger throughline: showing up visibly, joyfully and unapologetically as a Black trans woman in spaces across entertainment, sports and culture.

Peppermint is available for interviews on television, film, Broadway, trans visibility, queer culture and her latest projects.

MARTI CUMMINGS WELCOMES ETHAN SLATER TO “STAGE FRIGHT”

Marti Cummings continues to build Stage Fright into one of New York’s most dynamic intersections of Broadway, drag, comedy and nightlife.

Most recently, Cummings welcomed Broadway and screen star Ethan Slater as a special guest, alongside Elijah Caldwell of Shucked on piano and fellow guest Erich Schleck of the Jesus Christ Superstar tour.

The booking reflects the show’s growing pull across the Broadway community — and Cummings’ own evolution from nightlife performer into a host and cultural connector bringing together some of theater and entertainment’s most compelling voices.

The momentum comes as Cummings also expands into long-form conversation with the new interview series What’s the Buzz.

Marti Cummings is available for interviews on Broadway, drag, nightlife, sobriety, hosting and the growing crossover between theater and queer live entertainment.

ANDREW FULLER EXPANDS FOOD NETWORK PRESENCE WITH “SWEET DECEIT”

Professional pastry artist and television personality Andrew Fuller will make his Sweet Deceit debut on Food Network on October 5, adding another high-profile television credit to a rapidly expanding on-screen career.

The appearance follows Fuller’s current run as a judge on Halloween Wars Season 16 alongside Jonathan Bennett and Shinmin Li, and builds on the global audience he first reached as the winner of Netflix’s Is It Cake?

But Fuller’s story extends well beyond viral hyperrealistic cakes.

A trained pastry professional based in Des Moines, Fuller has developed a distinct visual language built around precision, theatricality and a refusal to sand down what makes his work — and his personal style — different.

As food television continues to become more personality-driven and visually ambitious, Fuller offers an expert perspective on pastry, food media and the changing aesthetics of baking on screen.

Andrew Fuller is available for interviews on pastry, food television, visual storytelling, queer creativity and the evolution of baking culture.

SAVE HIV FUNDING PUSHES FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV TO HAVE A REAL SEAT AT THE TABLE

As companies, institutions and philanthropic leaders announce new HIV initiatives, Save HIV Funding co-founder Jeremiah Johnson is raising a critical question: Who is actually in the room when those decisions are made?

Following recent HIV announcements involving the Clinton Global Initiative and sexual-health company MISTR, Johnson and fellow advocates have called for stronger involvement of people living with HIV in the conversations shaping programs, investments and policy priorities.

The latest push follows a major showing by Save HIV Funding at the U.S. Conference on HIV/AIDS in Anaheim, where advocates mobilized around threats to federal HIV research, prevention, treatment and care.

The campaign’s position is clear: people living with HIV should not be treated simply as beneficiaries of policy. They should help shape it. The issue arrives at a pivotal moment for the U.S. HIV response, as funding pressures, access challenges and changes across public and private health infrastructure continue to reshape the landscape.

Jeremiah Johnson and Save HIV Funding leaders are available for interviews on HIV policy, federal funding, community representation, public-private partnerships and the future of the U.S. HIV response.
