Witness the next wave of 14 emerging drag kings as they take stages by storm in this final student showcase with special guest performer Throb Zombie!

All 14 kings have worked tirelessly over the last 6 weeks of an intensive Be a King course instructed by local drag kings Henlo Bullfrog and Cyrus K. Stratton. We invite the community to cheer on and support these kings’ newly honed skills in stage presence, makeup application, costume design, and character development.

Henlo Bullfrog is Philly’s FX king, reality competition winner, and airbrush artist to the stars whose award winning artistry blends stagecraft, costuming, and special effects. Henlo’s work has appeared on stages across the country including Drag Race, Dragula, and Cats: The Jellicle Ball. Drag venues report that sightings of Henlo Bullfrog may involve UV glowing, missing time, and blurriness.

Cyrus K. Stratton is a suave, sultry, and creative old soul who will take you on a ride so smooth you’ll wish you had a second ticket. He has been humbly pinned as the drag king who will steal your heart, your date, and all of your dollar bills. Since taking stages by storm in Philadelphia, Cyrus is on a journey to enlighten the world to the beauty, grace, and talent of drag kings.

Special guest THROB ZOMBIE is the spoiled rotten prince of monster drag, and a finalist on Season 5 of the Boulet Brothers Dragula! They are sexy, but awful. Delicious, distasteful, often demonic, and absolutely gorgeous. Villain himbo. Fanged and jeweled. 35% chance of blood. 100% Vladdy.

Come feel the power of an all drag king show as our second cohort shares the stage with seasoned kings and graduates into the field of drag king royalty!
