St. Petersburg- What do Alexander the Great, Harvey Milk and Susan  B. 
Anthony all have in common? They're featured in Latin star Jade  Esteban Estrada's 
new production, ICONS: The Lesbian and Gay  History of the World, Vol. 2. Back 
by popular demand, the so-called  "Prince of Pride" returns to Suncoast 
Theatre to help open the St. Pete  Pride festivities for the second year in a row. 
ICONS is a one-man show in which  the charismatic entertainer impersonates six 
world-changing gay figures with  song, dance and drag, reminding audiences 
that gays have been making their mark  throughout history, not just post-Will & 
Grace. Due to the number of  requests for an encore, Estrada performs ICONS: 
Vol. 1 (shown last year) and  Vol. 2 on a rotating schedule. Presented by Gypsy 
Productions. Through June 4, 8  p.m. Thurs-Sat, 1:30 p.m. Sun., 3000 34th St. 
S., St. Petersburg, $16 in  advance/ $18 at the door, 727-456-0500 or
