Drag King

07/12/2023

T33n_Angst

I perform as a drag king called T33n_Angst, a spotty teenage boy, heavily influenced by 90s & 00s pop-punk & emo aesthetic. I was a finalist of Man Up 2022, Europe’s biggest drag king competition, was crowned Mx Margate at Margate Pride 2022, and won the 2nd season of the drag competition Top of the Slops in 2023. My drag embraces an intentionally DIY aesthetic and I create all aspects of my acts myself: I edit backing tracks, design, sew and customise costumes, craft props from cardboard and Papier-mâché, and produce & promote shows. Some of my favourite costumes & props:

The IncrEDIBLES- a cursed Pixar show

I produced my first drag show "The IncrEDIBLES: A Cursed Journey Through the Pixar Universe" which sold out the Royal Vauxhall Tavern (February 2024). I performed 2 acts, hosted, preparing skits and games and segues between acts. I received really warm feedback for this night. Poster designed by me

School of Rock at Rio Cinema

I produced and hosted a School of Rock drag show and screening at Rio Cinema in Dalston (September 2024). Poster designed by me

Monster Energy Act

Costume & props all hand made by me.

Band shirt

Hand painted shirt with pop-punk band logos on the front and a skateboarding skeleton with lettering on the back.

Sid- Toy Story

Props & costume for my Toy Story Sid burlesque act including shorts with Sid’s creepy mechanical spider baby, enlarged matchstick & box, a Buzz lightyear toy that reveals red sequins coming from its neck & attached to a large boa with other toy heads when it gets decapitated to 'Heads Will Roll'.

Shaggy (Scooby Doo) Sandwich puppet

I made this sandwich puppet for my Shaggy solo act as part of "Ruh-Roh She Better Doo". The base is hot-glued cardboard, covered and decorated with felt & other fabrics.
