Peep Show is a Smashing Success!

The time has come for a change in Portland's drag scene!  And Tuesday night we began that change with the the incredible kickoff of my new monthly event, Peep Show @ The Red Cap Garage!  Opening night we brought in the legendary and epic talents of Sherry Vine and Joey Arias and they truly were phenomenal!  Their singing, humor, and even when they were just chatting with the audience took drag to a whole new level!  I was incredibly inspired and thankful to be able to have them here!


I kicked off the night with my tribe of cannibal queens for a gruesome yet funny rendition of "Maneater".  Many thanks to my backup performers Sally Ingus Wilder, Saturn, and Brandon!  It was by far one of the favorite numbers I've done since moving back to Portland!

The second set was opened by the always amazing Ecstasy Inferno with a rousing Missy Elliot mix!  Now this was a seven minute number, which usually would have me shaking my head in frustration, but this girl pulled it off!  And we will be seeing much more of her in the coming months!

Peep Show will continue to happen on the first Tuesday of every month!  We are going to be bringing you the hottest drag talent as well as a mixture of singing, dance, comedy, and so much more!  We want to take Portland's nightlife entertainment to an entirely new level and I think we are off to a great start!  Plus we are working on bringing you more very special out of town guests in the upcoming months!  One hint...think outside the boxx!  So make sure to mark your calendars for Tuesday, June 1st for the next installment of Peep Show!
