Ready SET Drag

Ready SET Drag - A Workshop With Sexy Galexy

Ready, Set, Drag is a three-part workshop series in Feb and March across the dates of Feb 1st, Feb 8th, March 22nd which culminates in a Ready, Set, Drag Showcase, where you’ll perform your newly crafted number on Sat April 18th. Each workshop is 3 hours from 10am-1pm

It’s an open, welcoming, gloriously inclusive for absolutely anyone who’s ever wanted to paint a face, strut a stage, or unleash a character they’ve been quietly rehearsing in the shower.

All genders, sexualities, skill levels, creatures, curiosities, and performance styles are not only accepted – they’re celebrated with applause and possibly glitter.

Across two hands-on makeup sessions, you’ll learn brow blocking, contouring, eye design, facial hair techniques, lashes, and the essential product knowledge needed to turn “Oh no…” into “Oh WOW.”.

In the 3rd workshop, the focus shifts to performance – developing your character, shaping your number, and building strong stage presence and lip-sync skills. We’ll also touch on wigs, costume bedazzling, and other finishing touches to elevate your look.

Each participant also receives a personal online 30-minute coaching session with Sexy.

Upon registration you will receive an email detailing what to bring to each workshop.

Workshop Dates: Feb 1st, Feb 8th, March 22nd
10am-1pm (Duration 3hrs per workshop)

Please arrive early, as the workshop begins at 10am sharp.

And that’s Lesson Number One, darling: never be late for a show. Arrive early, breathe deeply, look mysterious, and—most importantly – start on time. Nothing says “professional” like being ready before your contour is.
