A Night of Neon



By: Alexandria Devlin 

    Recently, local drag queens and kings came from Rochester to bring the world of drag to the semesterly Alfred Drag Show. Drag is part of the LGBT+ culture where gay men dress up as over-exaggerated women and vise versa. They dance and perform to a song during the performance. It’s always a lot of fun to watch the shows and the performers interact with the audience which makes the experience even more magical. The drag shows are definitely a highlight of the semester.

    During the show, one of the performers, DeeDee DuBois, announced the opening date of ROAR, her new LGBT+ venue in Rochester for drag. It opened the weekend of November 1st , and it was absolutely lovely. The shows were amazing to watch and the food and drink was delicious and comforting. The drag shows are always a treat and I cannot wait till next semesters’ show at Alfred University.
