Parklands' Pride big weekend is "gorgeous" says RuPaul's Drag Race judge Michelle Visage
A WEEKEND filled with pride saw two local drag queens entertain delighted residents at two Parklands' care homes.
And that got the seal of approval from drag royalty – with Michelle Visage, a judge on RuPaul’s Drag Race tweeting her support for the event to her 650,000 followers, describing it as “gorgeous".
Miss Lossie Mouth and Venus Guytrap were performing at the opening of Parklands Pride, a series of five events taking place at care homes in Moray and the Highlands.
Aberlour and Grantown were the first residents to enjoy the musical treat.
At Lynemore in Grantown and Aberlour in Speyside, the audience was treated to 80 minutes of entertainment as Miss Lossie Mouth evoked the timeless charm of Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli with her classic renditions.
Venus Guytrap, delivered a powerful medley of hits from legendary artists such as Frank Sinatra, Tina Turner, Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, and Shirley Bassey.
Donald Morrison, director of communications for Parklands Care Homes, said: “We couldn’t have asked for a better opening to Parklands Pride.
"Miss Lossie Mouth and Venus Guytrap were absolutely fabulous and the residents adored every moment of their performances. We can’t wait to bring the show to our other care homes.”
Parklands Pride continues with more shows in Muir of Ord, Fortrose and Tain to follow.
