Midsumma Festival: So You Think You Can Drag 2019

So You Think You Can Drag
It's currently Midsumma Festival in Melbourne and last night Sean, Mat and I went to see So You Think You Can Drag at Howler. This contest for amateur drag queens and kings was hosted by the hilarious Dolly Diamond, and featured a variety of acts across two intervals. I always enjoy performances that have a bit of humor, and my favorites during the evening were the lonely Betty Crimes, the explosive Dr Safari Boob, and Mustashe with his vegetables.

While the judges discussed their scores and determined the winner, we were treated to a performance by the reigning champions, Dazza and Keif. They were so entertaining with their dance routine, matching tracksuits and Shannon Noll t-shirts that I will likely check out their upcoming show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. The winner of this year's So You Think You Can Drag was Femboyant, who had a bit of a rockabilly kabuki vibe. It was a fantastic evening and great to be able to see some of Melbourne's up and coming drag talent.
