In The Spotlight - DDD in the MPLS Star Tribune:
"I confess to being a late convert to this hilarious and inventive performance troupe. Although they've been around for eight years, I saw DDD for the first time at Macalester College last year and was pleased at how much more imaginative, inventive, subversive and funny they were than most Homos Doing Drag. While the guys always seem to go for "flawlessness" and overdone diva-dom, the women kick it low-fi, like a Savers fashion show in Genderbenderville."
City Pages BEST LESBIAN BAR 2003:
"Dykes Do Drag pushes well beyond the typical... There's real talent on display here: modern dancers, sleazeball lounge singers, Michael Jackson look-alikes, and Zombies sound-alikes. Sweet transvestites prance and are then followed by real-live aerial acts, women who slide down silk cloths tied precariously to the ceiling pipes(!). Because Dykes Do Drag is located in a bar setting, you can do all sorts of fun things: eat, drink, and flirt with your neighbors during intermission. Who knows what could happen when the light dims and the excellent show continues?"
Who I'd like to meet: People who like queer, post-modern, performance art-y, cabaret revue variety shows, of course. People who like pretty boys and handsome girls. People who like good drag and good times.
