Drag royalty Sasha Velour has won RuPaul’s Drag Race S9, created her own revue with NYC’s Night Gowns and brought community to those in Tennessee and Oklahoma through HBO’s We’re Here. Loverboy may be biased but our favourite thing about the best-selling author besides her own unique perspective on drag is that she loves coming to see us over in Europe! And guess what – in 2026 she’s returning with a brand new show in tow.
Travesty is Sasha’s new 80-minute spectacle which promises to ‘trace the secret queer history of a single spot throughout time. A witch burns in a field; a clown builds a theater; an underground gay bar rises up against the police.’ ‘Travesty is unlike any show I’ve created,’ our host explains. ‘It is the purest, but also the most radical and experimental version of drag I’ve ever put on stage. No apologies or explanations, just ART! Drag is for everyone, because our message of freedom, love, and authenticity is universal. People have been doing ‘drag’—dressing up, blurring gender, and telling stories—since the dawn of time. With Travesty, I wanted to honor those traditions, while exploring where we can go next.’
In 2024 Sasha toured The Big Reveal Live Show and told Loverboy, ‘I’m starting to do some aerial performance for my next show, which I am already planning, so I may need to stretch for that. I’m turning thirty-seven this year, I think it’s a great time to learn.’ You heard it here first…
