WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT?

Nefertiti LaNegra may be Queen of the Nile, and the thicc Dutchess of the Thigh Gap, but she didn’t always start out that way. She was born in a small town in the middle of nowhere and by golly – it has taken a lot to get her here: to 2019, to the big city. There have been ups – and an occasional down – so let her take you on a ride as she waxes poetic about growing up a queen amongst those who did not see her glory. Love (letters), sex, race, gender, (popular) song, and dance all collide in this poetic spectacle. When thinking about drag everyone expects a Judy Garland but no one expects a Serena Williams – and that’s where Nefertiti fills the gap.

Not suitable for children. Contains adult themes and coarse language.
