The Overture is proud to have backed the winner of the University of Texas at Dallas’s fifth annual Drag Show and would like to acknowledge the support of everyone who made our dude look like a lady:

  • Leslie Adelina Bradshaw for donating Averoigne’s red ball gown
  • Lovely Rat’s Quality Custom Clothing  for donating Averoigne’s burlesque and scandalously short black dress ensembles
  • Lauren Buell for giving a boy a waist and a fairy drag-mother
  • PRIDE at UT Dallas for raising $228 with home-baked noms (it made him look better in the ‘amount raised for charity’ round)
  • Miwa Murray for fetching emergency shave gel and razorblade
  • Lauren Buell again for being the one who had to administer the emergency shave gel and razor blade.
