Description

MUSIC, DANCING, COMEDY, STORIES AND GAMES Your luck is about to change for the better when Southern Illinois’ finest drag performers take the stage at the Varsity’s All-Ages Drag Show on Friday, March 18. The Get Lucky All-Ages Drag Show begins at 7 p.m. Doors and the Varsity Bar open at 6. The monthly, multi-faceted drag show continues, featuring lip-synching, live singing, comedy, dancing, games and stories by queens and a king. Southern Illinois’ Pride Queen and the godmother of Carbondale’s drag scene Blanche DuBois is the evening’s emcee, and she’ll also perform. Joining Blanche will be Jodie Santana, Southern Illinois Pride King Faim Lee Jewls, Holly Haliwell and Leiyana Santana. Christina Garnette will be the evening’s pre-show hostess and will perform a number, too. This is an all-ages show, and the Varsity welcomes young people; however, the show can be on the risqué side, and those 17 and younger must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. The show begins at 7 p.m. Friday, March 18. Tickets are $10 for adults or $5 for students with ID. They are available in advance here at Eventbrite. Tickets are not available in advance at the venue but will be available there on the night of the show, when doors and the Varsity Bar open at 6. The Varsity advises that tickets are purchased in advance, as the shows usually sell out before the performance. Come early and enjoy a special cocktail at the bar in the company of Christina and the Varsity staff. Bartenders will be mixing special drinks for the evening.
