Social DistanceKing - Highlights
Wow lovers, we are still coming down from that absolutely delicious night with you all last week. What a top-notch party! What a way to do iso together. 🥰 Thank you for helping us make our first ever Kongs livestream such a huge success. Did you know our show was viewed 1.2k times over the weekend?! ... and received over 800 comments! You've made us feel so damn happy and loved. We never imagined any of this would be possible but look what a little community plus creativity can achieve. 💜
We also received so much love from you in the form of donations, and we wanted to let you know that as a result of your generosity we have been able to share those funds with our artists and crew who most needed it. If our hearts could grow any bigger they would actually explode. Your support is beautiful and so much appreciated. 💚
As a little treat we have put together a cute video of some of our fave moments from the show. Apologies that some parts of the video don't have Auslan interpretation. We had some tech troubles on the night (learning curve!) but we will endeavour to add captioning to this video and repost as soon as we can. We hope you'll enjoy reliving the chaos and nonsensical fun with us!
Thank you to all of the artists and crew who collaborated to make this event possible. What a deliciously diverse group of drags we are! A special shout out to DJ Gay Dad for throwing the iso dance party of our dreams. Can't wait to do it all again... xx
Round 3 of Drag n Dial has just dropped drag lovers!
Featuring the performance excellence of Belial B'Zarr, Jesse Dean and Giddy Updike!
What’s Drag n Dial? It’s like the old kids game of Telephone but with drag kings instead of kids and videos instead of whispers. Ikr?!
Check it out now via our Facebook & Insta stories!
And if you missed the first two rounds you can catch up via our highlights on our insta bio. 💜 You’re most welcome! 😉
