Scarlet Vixen
So You Wanna Be A Queen?
$10

Ever since Rupaul’s Drag Race exploded into the mainstream, drag queens have emerged from the shadows to become a beloved form of entertainment. Of course, there’s no right or wrong way to express your inner queen, but what if you don’t even know where to start? This workshop will teach the basics of what you need to know in order to slay the stage, from choosing a drag persona, putting together an outfit to the basics of a good performance. After the class ends, I’ll provide tons of additional resources including videos in order for you to further your education and go more in-depth. This class will be focusing on those who want to start their drag queen journey, but all levels of experience and types of performers are welcomed to join!
