Faux Real

What does it take to be a real drag queen ? Though women have ruled as role models for generations of queens, drag is still known as the ultimate boys club. Fauxnique and Faux Real turn the clubhouse upside down. Not only does Fauxnique ‘lipsynch for her life,’ but she also dances, sings and offers some philosophical musings on artifice and authenticity. Faux Real revels in the tension between the glamour of performance and the intimacy of presence.

Be ready for high heel stunts, hero worship, remembrance of gay prom dates past & fervid femme feminism.
