I went to my second show of the Dublin Fringe Festival. It was an ambitious drag show send up of The Wizard of Oz combining the film, The Wiz, Wicked, and some of the group's own invention. It started late, but still ran more than two-and-a-half hours. I bought the program in case anyone wants to check it out. I was lured in by the promo which promised gender-bending, drag performance, and musical fun. (If only there had been juggling...)
So it was something I was glad I saw, more so because I will go check out the drag king and queen shows. The two drag kings as The Wizard and The Cowardly Lion were definitely the highlights of the show. Iris Meehan (as the Cowardly Lion) is the current Alternative Miss Ireland.
Who knows? By year's end I may enter into one of the shows. I could wear a mustache!
