Dame Edna – The Mother of All Drag Queens

MiamiNewTimes.com – By Penn Bullock

Dame Edna Everage is the most notorious drag queen in the Anglo-Saxon world. She’s a hybrid of Lou Dobbs and Ursula (the octopus queen in the Little Mermaid). There are more fake jewels on her dresses than grains of sand on a beach, and her trademark cat-eye glasses have tentacles…

This month, Dame Everage will grace South Florida with her enormous, glittering, glamorous presence as part of her show, Dame Edna: My First Last Tour. Dame Edna runs through March 28 at the Parker Playhouse, at 707 NE Eighth St. in Fort Lauderdale. Tickets start at $15.
