Drag Queens
A Drag queen is usually a man who dresses, or "drags", in female clothes and make-up for special occasions and usually because they are performing or entertaining as a hostess, stage artist or at an event.
Drag performances have been a staple of cabaret entertainment in many gay clubs and bars for many years.
Famous Birmingham drag artists include Ricky Deveaux, Mrs Mills (Bussom Buddies), Marty, Penny, Tilly, Twiggy and Chrissy Darling amongst many others. Some bars such as Partners, Missing and Glamourous specialise in cabaret.
