Drag Show Video Verite IV 2010 (#97)
by Joe E. Jeffreys

It’s the ultimate NYC drag show… on video tape.

This annual NYC drag video mash up screens rare footage capturing the faces and places, past and present, of the city’s vibrant male and female impersonation scenes. A quick-cut who’s who of NYC drag performers drawn from contemporary and archival footage including Mimi Imfurst, Sherry Vine, Ethyl Eichelberger, International Chrysis,  Zondra Foxx, Linda Simpson, Lypsinka, Flloyd, Rollerena, Rose Wood and many many more.

A special slide show of Leee Black Childers drag portraits opens the screening and a Q&A with project producer Joe E. Jeffreys and featured performers follows.
