Janus Entertainment and Drag Queens are Us present DRAG

‘I don’t want to be a woman … I want to be a star!’ DRAG - Original concept by Ryan Schulz, written and narrated by John Aitken.

Featuring Panache, Elixir Bowles, Dee Lux, Electra Thigh, Swish Eveready & Kodi Pendant.

A fabulous journey into the world of drag as told by Perth’s own vibrant young drag queens led by the effervescent Panache with live singing not just lip-sinc mime - this is the real thing!

Drag is the untold story of a drag queen – of all drag queens – told with high emotion, high energy and hit songs. Go behind the curtain. You may be expecting a bloke in a frock that lip syncs to the campest music out.

This production will take you into the drag realm and show you something else. Something more. While drag can be a statement of pride, for many it is also a profession, a performing art in its own right.

Drag cannot be defined by genre. Drag is a genre mash-up; an entity unto its own. Producer Ryan Schulz and his cast of many will bring our all-time favourite divas to life, offering up every human emotion you could possibly experience in one short hour. Trust me, dahling, burlesque is just so passé. Meow!
