HOTLINE MEMBER CABARET EVENT TONIGHT IN NYC: NEXT NY'S TOP DRAG QUEEN CONTEST AT THE MET
Four NYC Drag Queens to fight it out on stage to be crowned 'NYC's Top Drag Queen' at THE METROPOLITAN ROOM(34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) on Mondays, at 9:30 pm. The six-week juried affair, hosted by the Metropolitan Room, continues for its fifth week, and through sheer talent and hopefully not a cat fight, NY's Top Drag Queen will be crowned on the finale show on Monday, May 4th, when the series will come to its ultimate climax. Judged not by looks alone but by how well they sing and entertain, the Top 6 semi-finalists are being asked to perform one disco song and one country song each. Going toe-to-toe are these six hard-working cross-dresers: Strawberry Fields, Tammy Spenks, Ruby Powers, Louvel, LeeLee Heavenly, and Julia Beaumont. The host the series for a second year is one of NYC's most famous Drag Queens, Holly Dae. Dae has been performing in NYC for the past seven years. She started her career back in Boston, and has since gone on to travel all over the US and European countries. Her quick tongue and witty comments have made her audiences laugh and cackle for years. Holly has won such awards as Entertainer of the year on Fire Island, Best Drag Queen by Get Out Magazine, Queen to Watch Out For in 2013 by Next Magazine, Best Drag show by The 2015 Glam Awards, First Runner Up at the National Miss'd America Pageant, and many more. Holly will keep these twelve vigorously pre-screened Drag Queens under control whilst they are judged by not only looks but by how well they sing and entertain. It will be a seemingly unending parade of new outfits, special guests, surprise guest judges and a mystery judge whose identity will only be revealed at the contests over-the-top finale. "New York's Next Top Drag Queen Contest" is produced by the Metropolitan Room and Joseph Macchia. The contest's permanent judges include Arsenio Amadas (Mr Eagle 2013), Frankie C. (columnist for Odyssey Magazine), and Macchia, the MAC and Bistro award-winning cabaret producer of "Cabaret Cares," "Broadway on 22nd Street" and "Boys Night Out." The mystery judge will remain "closeted" until the very end. There is a $16 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
