What to expect at a drag show?

Asked by martinez00anita (225 points) | asked May 22nd, 2008 | 6 responses | “Great Question” (0 points) | Flag as…

I plan on visiting my first one. Details, please. Is it ok to laugh? Not like a “haha you’re a drag queen,” more like a ” haha this is crazy.”

I’ve been to the La Cage show in Vegas, and it was by far the funniest show I’ve seen in a long time. The whole audience was rolling. I’d expect it to be funny and probably somewhat impressive depending on the quality of the show to begin with.

Darn, I thought you meant drag show like with cars. I was all set up with a bunch of immature tranny jokes only to find out that’s what you meant all along :(

Drag performers (at least the good ones) put a tremendous amount of time, effort (duct tape for that “not-a-male” look), practice and money into their performances (those gowns and wigs aren’t cheap). They look at drag shows as performance art. Cheer or applaud for those you find to be good performers, just like you would any other entertainers.
