 Dragoween, it's a fundraiser to help with drug and alcohol rehab in the Austin LGBTQ community.

 That would be fantastic.

 With a lot of help from other people who are much more talented than I am.

 It took me about 20 years.

 It is a very supportive community. I know that no one is judging me. We are all just being the best we can be.

8. How do you deal with pre-show nerve's?

 Remembering that it is for fun and entertainment. I try to not get too serious about it.

9. Do you feel like drag is a way of expressing yourself?

How did you find out about drag and what made you decide that this is what you wanted to do? I always knew I was special but growing up I realized that I was not the best dancer or singer but I was meant to be on stage.

Alana Duvey Interview

We recently caught up with the amazing Glasgow Queen, Alana Duvey and talked about her show Drag-Opticon, how she got into drag and more! 1. How did you find out about drag? I'd say when Dharma Geddon first sat me down and made me watch RuPaul's Drag Race for the first time. I was sceptical at first as I didn't think it was something I'd enjoy too much but it was season 4, arguably one of the best, definitely one of our favourites and I was hooked from the start. Sharon Needles, Latrice Royale and Chad Michaels were very much my standouts right off the bat! I guess I always remember Lily Savage, Dame Edna and Eddie Izzard being on TV growing up too, I always found them hilarious and still do. I always knew they were men in dresses but I was maybe a bit too young at that point to know that's a thing called drag or transvestism and that's what they were practicing. 2. What made you decide that this is what you wanted to do? It's crazy as I never w...
