One Day More...

Yes, one day more 'till we shoot the bulk of our film tomorrow at Drag Wars in Lurgan!! Very exciting, but also a very un-exciting and stomach-churning notion that it's happening tomorrow with the prospect of messing it up and not getting the opportunity to re-shoot...

Pessimism aside, new details of the event have been received!

Set List of Performers:

• Misty Falls (Our leading lady and previous winnder)
• Fefe Geisha (Another previous winner)
• Wee Hannah Crush (Hostess)
• Onya Becks
• Mez Moneypenny
• Alexis McQueen
• Sandy Kandy
• Ivy Rivers
• Penny Cillan

The Burn is right beside the Ashburn Hotel, 81 William St. in Lurgan. It's conveniently right by the train station so I have a good idea where it is.

I've been informed that none of the girls apart from Misty and the organizers know that myself and my team are filming but there should be no qualms about us filming. I've got the visual consent forms regardless, can't afford to take any risks at this stage.

Questions to ask the performers:

• Why did you start performing in drag?
• Would you say that your character in drag is a completely different person or an exaggerated aspect of yourself?
• Why do you think people enjoy watching drag performers?
• How do you think drag culture reflects the LGBT community?
• Would you dress up drag in your free time or is it strictly performance only?
• How do you deal with the inevitable nasty comments from people?
• A lot of people aren't aware that there's a thriving drag culture in Belfast and all over Northern Ireland, a place better known for it's political and religious trouble than it's entertainment. Do you think it's important to have this culture exist in a society that has been so divided?
• What's next?

Some of these will need to be reworded and/or condensed, so these will need to be run by Anya before we can go any further.
