The David Bowie burlesque show was pure joy from start to finish. The performers somehow topped themselves from last year in creativity, energy, and musical virtuosity. The comfort of a safe queer space combined with cheers and joy from the crowd made the night magical. And the cherry on top is the dinner and companionship of my friends who joined me.

We’re all agreed this needs to be a yearly tradition. I’ve already set a reminder to book our tickets next year.

Now I’m on a train bound home, rested, happy, content.
