Drag Royalty, a registered student organization, will pay tribute to the origins of drag with the Queer Heritage Night Drag Show at 7 p.m. April 2, in the Brown Ballroom of the Bone Student Center at Illinois State University.  

Tickets are $5 and can be purchased on the Drag Royalty website. A large part of the proceeds from the show will benefit the Drag Defense Fund.

The night will celebrate LGBTQ+ history with fabulous drag performances and host Portia Lynn Snaps “teaching” about the fight for queer liberation, the history of drag, and how to be an excellent queer ally. 

In addition to Snaps, the cast will include performers Niki, Shantel, Izzy Fierce, Lola Zahor, Selena Rivera, Azula Lynn, Angelica Diamond, and Lincoln Logge. The event will also feature Jenna and Kelsey.
