What does Pride mean to you?
Pride is love, courage, and collective joy. It’s a way to honor leaders and legends who have fought, and who continue to fight, for our safety and visibility. Pride is how I connect with others who want to share their fabulousness with the world.
How does Indy Drag Theatre connect you to community?
IDT has given me a chance to make art, gain confidence, learn skills, build friendships, grieve in comfort, laugh constantly, celebrate wins…and everything in between. I feel connected to fellow artists and friends no matter where I go.
What is an IDT moment that filled you with Pride?
I am proud every time I turn around in my seat and look at the audience at an IDT show. The flashy attire, the hoots and hollers, even a few tears — I am so proud that our existence, as an organization and as queer artists, has created a space where we all can be our authentic selves.
What do you want everyone to keep in mind this Pride season?
Drink water. Apply sunscreen. Rinse. Repeat.
