Ladies as Gentleman: Drag Kings on Tour

2004 • Directed by

Sonia Slutsky

Documentary

In Drag Kings on Tour, a feature documentary in the spirit of "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert," we tour North America in a motor home with a lively ensemble of drag kings (women who take on male personae) as they perform a politically charged burlesque in cities as diverse as Biloxi, Mississippi; St. Louis, Missouri; and Toronto, Ontario. This cinema vérité road movie is the first feature length film to focus exclusively on the lives of drag kings.
