Kings and queens come out to drag

John Forget knows what it’s like to be somebody else. Some nights, with a lot of make-up, the right dress and some help from his friends, the 25-year-old gay man becomes a 19-year-old straight girl from outer-space. Forget is a drag queen.

Tonight is one of those nights. Forget and his friends are getting ready for A Family Affair at Pier 61. The show features 10 drag queens and kings, the whole Thunder Bay drag community. When Forget started out six years ago he was one of the only queens in town.
