Now See This: Darcelle XV

I know the glittered glory of Darcelle is old hat to many Portlanders, but if you haven’t yet seen this gritty drag show, do so immediately.

Highlight:  Mr. Mitchell (though he’s not a female impersonator) and his sexed-up Prince review.

Lowlight:  The after-hours male strippers.  Don’t stay too long or you’ll leave smelling like their coconut body oil.

Arts Op!

Repost from Portlandart.net:

“Local artists Sarah Gottesdiener and Jenny Hoyston are seeking artist/performer/etc. participants for a monthly post-First Friday anti-stuffy art salon they’re launching this February at Branx. If you would like to show art, perform, play music, or really do anything to participate, contact sarah.gottesdiener@gmail.com.”

Sounds good right.
