Winner of <\/b>RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race<\/i>\u00a0Season 10, Aquaria,\u00a0<\/b>will be making a stop in Cardiff\u2019s Glee Club on her Winner\u2019s Tour<\/b><\/h2>\n
\"\"

The winner of reality television show <\/span>RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race<\/span><\/i>, Aquaria, will be coming to Cardiff\u2019s Glee Club 14 November as part of their Winner\u2019s Tour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aquaria, who competed on the show\u2019s 10th season, will present a full show with her American Dancers. As well as winning the show, the queen is also well known for being the drag daughter of Season 4 winner, Sharon Needles. <\/span><\/p>\n

Cardiff has a lively LGBT community, with different gay bars and clubs across the city. It also has a lively drag community, including Nana Sparkles, the only queen to speak Welsh in the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

In an interview<\/a> with Wales Online, Nana says, \u201c<\/span>What I love about the job is being able to put a smile on so many people’s faces and they turn up at a show not knowing exactly what they’re going to see and when they leave they can’t believe how much they’ve enjoyed themselves. It’s about giving them a fantastic night of entertainment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Cardiff is known as one of the most LGBT friendly places, with Pride Cymru, the city\u2019s Pride celebration, becoming the first Pride event in the UK to be accredited with a Silver Award by \u2018Attitude is Everything\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n

Bradley Birkholz, a local drag performer under the stage name, Bella Tempus, commented that \u201cWe have such a thriving community here, and even if I\u2019m not getting the local jobs, I\u2019m glad those jobs even exist and that other queens are getting those jobs, because there\u2019s some really fierce and under appreciated talent here that deserves to go far.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

\u201cThe reaction is the same as any creative profession where somebody is a more local artist than a TV personality.\u201d he continues. \u201cIt\u2019s all a popularity contest really, and if people don\u2019t like you, you won\u2019t get jobs\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n

Aquaria\u2019s show begins at 8pm 14 November. Tickets are still available.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
