In today's episode I'm chatting to Rita Suszek, AKA drag King (and your Polish boyfriend) Janusz. I first discovered Janusz via digital drag where I hugely enjoyed his hapless yet likeable comedy antic as he attempts to negotiate the modern world. In my chat with Rita today we discuss the creative process behind forming a character, diversity in the drag scene as well as an exiting series of free workshops that Rita is bringing to Liverpool in a few weeks' time. Enjoy!

The World Transformed: Mascs & Mascaras: The Radical Potential of Becoming a Drag King - Taster showcase, workshop & panel discussion

Eat Me and Preach Club Liverpool is Liverpool's original, biggest and baddest alternative drag dinner cabaret and club night! Born of the desire for a radical and diverse community for queer performers and participants alike, drag queen and producer Auntie Climax birthed EAT ME back in March 2017. Since then EAT ME has grown up real fast and now boasts a growing alumni of talented acts such as CHRISTEENE, Ginny Lemon, HP Loveshaft, Kalypso Bang, Kevin Le Grand, Lasana Shabaz, Midgitte Bardot, The Nightbus, and SHREK 666.
