Stunning sequins, magnificent make-up and extravagant feather headdresses will be on show on Friday, October 4, when some of Auckland’s best drag acts visit Leigh’s Sawmill Café.
The Queens of Drag Revue Show stars Kita Mean, winner of Ru Paul’s Drag Race Down Under, together with two of her campest sidekicks, Rita and Tess, to host a night of over-the-top glamour, humour and music.
They promise a night of dazzling entertainment for all, from seasoned drag fans to those who are new to the scene.
The R18 show is also a fundraiser for a young up and coming basketball player, Keidis Watts, who has been selected for the Elite Under 18 Kaipara squad, which means regular early morning training trips all the way to Otamatea High School in Maungaturoto.
Mum Penny Watts says the drag show is the latest in a series of fundraising events for Keidis and his 3×3 team, Happy Feet.
“They’re doing really well, but it’s definitely taken a village to get them there,” she says. “We couldn’t do it if we didn’t fundraise. We’ve held a few events for them and there are a lot of generous locals who are either sick of me asking or just very happy to support them – they’ve been great.”
The Queens of Drag Revue Show runs from 8pm to midnight and tickets cost $50.
