SUMMARY:Miss Drag South Africa 2025
DESCRIPTION:Miss Drag South Africa is a registered NON-PROFIT COMPANY positioned as a catalyst for change within the LGBTQA+ community and beyond. \nBorn out of the ethos of “Drag with a purpose\,” Miss Drag South Africa has provided a platform for the cultivation of change agents to engage in transformational work that is community-oriented and community-specific. \nMiss Drag South Africa has moved beyond the conventional notions of beauty pageants to become an agency that challenges and dismantles those notions. It is against this background that our organisation has extended participation to every person who is/was assigned male at birth and who identifies either as non-binary\, gay\, and/or transgender and who is a lover of the art of drag. We are aware that drag is not a gender identity but a form of expression that has later become an impetus for queer liberation. \nDuration: 3 Hours incl Interval\nAge Restriction: No under 12s \nKindly note Artscape provides wheelchair seating. You can book directly via this website but should you require assistance please call Artscape Dial-a-Seat on 021 421 76 95 who will assist with navigation and booking.
