Imagine the excitement that after the announcement of being nominated for 12 Emmy Awards, “Rupal’s Drag Race” would go on to win six Emmy’s, including the prestigious Outstanding Reality-Competition Program category.
Drag is not new but its ever-widening acceptance as a form of entertainment is.
None of us could have predicted, must less imagined, that a drag show would headline at the DeVos Performance Hall when it opened decades ago, but here we are today in the present and with many sold-out shows later.
On Tuesday, December 11, joining the ranks of touring shows (The Queens), local bar showcases (Rumors), and Drag Brunch, comes the return of
Holiday Drag Bingo presented at the Westside’s Harmony Hall.
Brought to this popular pizza and craft beer location by Beauty Beyond Drag Productions, Holiday Drag Bingo will be hosted by DeeDee Chaunte with special guest performances by Honey B Davis and eRis.
The event begins promptly at 7 p.m., and if you know anything about Drag Queens, they hate folks who wander in late, so pace yourself or find yourself at their mercy until the event ends around 9 p.m.
Your host will walk you through a sample card before the night begins. And unlike the images of grandma playing eight cards at once down at the Catholic social center, Holiday Drag Bingo guests only get one card per player at a time.
If you want to make it a night of it with dinner and bingo, Harmony Hall is offering $6 cheese and $7 pepperoni pizzas (dine-in only).
And should you get the chance to roar “bingo,” be prepared to go up front to spin the wheel and see what prize you have won. This event is sure to turn your cheeks rosy from all the laughter. If not, there is always blush to give you the appearance of a good time.
