19 May 2013
On Saturday night in Dragon (one of Dublin's gay bars) they were having a competition for "baby drags" and one contestant really threw herself into her performance. In fact she threw herself off the stage by accident! And that may not sound very dramatic, unless you are familiar with Dragon and it's very very hight stage! It runs over the bar on scaffolding and is probably ten feet tall so it's miraculous that this queen escaped unscathed. But somehow she did (apparently she got back up shortly after and continued on) so feel free to cackle.
Or you could just watch this:

And Petra Mede should host it every year no matter where it takes place.

This comes highly recommended to me and sounds like a suitably different way to spend an Easter Sunday - blindfolded in the dark.
From the blurb:
It's been over eight years since Life After Modelling released their only single, the truly wonderful ‘December 21st'. The intervening years have been far from wasted. On Sunday March 31st Life After Modelling will unveil their album ‘The Gospel According to Matthew J Anthony' in the suitably beautiful Smock Alley Theatre.
This evening will be a sensuous wonder. An evening where the shackles of preconception can be swapped for the immersion of darkness. The performance won't happen in the dark but you won't be able to see. If you're there, you'll be blindfolded.
Why? Why not...?
Imagine the possibilities; give your eyes a break, give your ears a gallop. Let these new songs wash over you and let us commune afterwards in the beautiful Banquet Hall for drinks and post-mortems.
You can have a listen here: Soundcloud
And you can book tickets: Smock Alley

Dancer/choreographer Neil O'Brien's dance company has a new show in Temple Bar's Smock Alley this weekend. Neil is Dublin based these days but after training in Dublin he continued his training in New York before then working on Broadway and across the US. He has recently returned to Dublin after spending the last year touring the globe on those toes of his.
"What has 80 toes, 8 heads, 200 jumps, 67 high kicks for Jesus, woolly jumper costume changes, jazz hands and a big band finale? 'Starting Pointe' by Niel O'Brien Dance Company. A veritable pix'n'mix of inspiration from 'Once' to 'Oasis' this is Neil's first show in Ireland and is guaranteed to make you laugh, cry, suppress emotion and go out and buy some leg warmers afterwards."

... THIS is a drag queen Madonna fan.
A (Brazilian?) drag queen recreates the entire MDNA show, including dance routines, costumes, projections, the lot! So if you have an hour or two to spare and would like to watch a single camera locked-off shot of a queen living out her Madonna fantasy in impressive detail, well, you're in luck.

We won't quibble over the fact that the these would appear to be from the "neo-cabaret"/burlesque scene, rather than the piano-bar/cruise ship cabaret scene that is used as shorthand for 'cheesy and tacky' on The X Factor etc.

I've said it a thousand times on this blog, but bring back variety shows to TV!
Here's Goldie and Liza's big finale from a 1980 CBS TV special called, approriately enough, Goldie & Liza. There's lots to love about it, but as my gay John said when he posted it to Facebook, stay for the cute dance break at 4:50.
