A Drag X-Mas

**December 2, 2012: A stellar lineup of male and female drag illusionists will take the stage at the historic Howard Theatre for this festive romp entitled A Drag X-​Mas Salute to the Divas. The show’s centerpiece is Eba-​Queeta-​Scrooge, a lip-​synched stage play. Performers include a male cast of Trenton Couture, Eboné Bell and Lonnie Fowler; the Rocky Drag cast of Riley Knoxx, Capri Bloomingdale, Chanel Devereaux and Lacountress Farrington; and the Drag Diva Dancers under the direction of choreographer Derek Brown. This show also serves as Shi-Queeta-Lee’s Fourth Annual Toy Drive for Children’s Hospital.**
Last night was my first time attending a Drag Queen show in DC. I compared the show with what I’ve seen at Palace Bar (South Beach, Miami) and the competition was FIERCE, honey! The lights. The cameras. The action. It was all glitz and glam. The costumes and hair were all VERY dramatic, which was fitting for a show. The performers (male AND female) were on-​point. The wigs were on tight. Make-​up was creatively done by Bennett Career Institute students.
The props were all created and set up by Shi-​Queeta-​Lee herself, which was pretty impressive. I will definitely be supporting as many future endeavors as I can.
We had a blast!
We scored $ 10 advanced tickets from Goldstar (regular price: $ 20/​$ 25), so that was an added bonus.
FYI: There is a Valentine’s Day show scheduled for February 12, 2013.
