A merry line-up of drag stars led by Nina West (a.k.a. Andrew Levitt, pictured) offer a wickedly fun holiday show.
The slang word “drag” refers to a person (usually male) who assumes the exaggerated dress and mannerisms of the other gender for artistic or entertainment purposes. For centuries, men have dressed as women during traditional customs and rituals. In medieval England, when women were banned from appearing on stage, men in dresses were common in plays. The term “drag” first appeared in the 1870’s and may have derived from the sensation of long skirts trailing on the floor.
“A Drag Queen Christmas” is a holiday drag showcase and a theatrical experience that delivers high camp, over-the-top lip-sync performances, comedy, elaborate costumes, Broadway-style staging and more.
