From The Editor: March 2025

Back by popular demand, it’s our annual drag issue! Because we also love to throw the theater world all the support we can, it’s now our annual drag and theater issue, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to dive into a bit of escapism and high queer culture in this issue.
But of course, even though drag and theater are a lot of fun, they’re also on the front lines of sharing social messages and doing the important work of activism and advocacy for the queer community. Drag and theater have such important roles in the coming years and the fight for queer acceptance, and that’s celebrated in this issue too.
On the cover is Dragula runner-up and small-town-queen-turned-alt-hero Auntie Heroine, in all their glory! They’re a testament to hard work and looking fierce. Also highlighted in these pages are our community partner and one of our favorite local theaters, Town Hall Arts Center. Not to mention, we have plenty of local and national drag and theater goodness to get you up to date on some new favorites.
Remember, even though the next four years are going to be hard, this isn’t a time to stop making art. Art is activism and a very important way to fight back and get our message across. Keep it up, and drop us a line on socials to let us know who else we should be highlighting!
