Loved the show! Such a fine way to make old songs sound new with the clever lyrics.

Even without the drag element, the singing alone would make this really worthwhile. The singer is not imply copying the original versions, but adding a lot of personal touches and emotions to it. I think the Poor Unfortunate Soul is way better than any other version I could find online. It's entertaining and artistic.
And the drag element is fantastic too. Beautiful drag queen.

Absolutely loved the show, the 3 of us had the best time and would definitely come again. Anyone that can, should come here and enjoy the show. She deserves it at the very least.

We were heading off to see Jinkx Monsoon tonight, so thought we’d try out another drag show beforehand. To be honest we were expecting something fairly amateur (because it’s part of the Free Fringe)when we decided on Life’s a Drag….but, boy, were we wrong! This is a fabulous show whether you’re looking for drag, comedy or a good old singalong. Very professional, fantastic vocals, laughs aplenty and a gorgeous queen. What more could you ask? Highly recommended!
