DQ – Lucky Lady!

Queer stuff, Toronto

Alrighty people, DQ – Lucky Lady opens this week and it’s your duty to go see this musical extravaganza at the Hart House theatre, U of T. It’s for an amazing cause, Casey House Hospice, and you can expect Toronto’s best drag performers (and others – including my Sharkboy in bell bottoms and butchered wig) giving 100% on that stage.

I caught a few minutes of it last Saturday as the cast was polishing up the technical cues. This year was suppose to be a “smaller” show (next year is their 20 year anniversary – expect a surprise announcement at the end of the show) and it was anything but “small”. I guess drag doesn’t “do” subtle. If you liked last year’s formula of remixed camp movie/musical productions, then you will not be dissapointed. Who can resist a drag queen bitchslap fight set to the Dynasty theme?

    This is the first year I have missed it for quite some time. I hope to be doing make up on next year’s show given the anniversary. I’m in Quebec City for the entire thing, so break-a-leg. I give to the cause my own way, and what, I hear the muttering in the front row at Hart House screaming, “Oh god I don’t think I want everything he’s got.” Given the event I thought a little Bette Midler was in order.
