About:

I started doing drag about six years ago when there wasn’t such a big drag scene in the UK. I like playing with masculine and feminine beauty in my drag as well as transforming into monsters, aliens and mythical beasts. With my partners in crime Anna Phylactic and DJ Danny Olsson Lane, I run Manchester’s home of fabulous Cha Cha Boudoir, a club cabaret for kings queens, club kids and drag monsters.

I have been traveling a ton this year, which has been so much fun! I did the European Gay Ski Week in March, and four of my drag family just got back from a trip to the states, visiting San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and the Austin International Drag Festival… but it’s not too long till I am back on the road. I am really excited to be at Milkshake Festival in Amsterdam in July, and later in the year will be going to Croatia for DRAGram… so if you are in that part of the world, come say hi! But before that I have a ton of events over here in the UK.

The drag scene has exploded in the last couple of years, and there’s such a great and diverse mix of amazing drag creatures and club nights. Currently I am helping George House Trust– a charity supporting people living with HIV in the north west, with their 2nd annual Manchester Drag Ball… and then in November, I am working on a big drag pageant with Homolicious UK. It will be the first of its kind with several heats over one weekend in a holiday camp… and a BIG CASH prize! When I am not doing drag, I spend my time writing and drawing…which at the moment isn’t very often 🙂
