Members of The Chicago Gay Men’s Chorus (CGMC) will BRING IT ON and haul out their highest drag to take to the stage at Hydrate Chicago on Friday, November 6, 2009 to perform in CGMC’s 6th Annual LIPSTICK & LYRICS: BRING IT ON! Live Singing Drag Revue. This year the performance will be hosted by Chicago drag star Madame X.
Over the past five years, LIPSTICK & LYRICS has grown to become a must-see, sell-out event, and is proud to be one of the few non-lip-sync drag revues in the city, showing off the vocal talents of members of CGMC in a different way than usually seen in the chorus’ regular concert schedule. Since its inception, LIPSTICK & LYRICS has been generously sponsored by Mark Lieberson and Hydrate Chicago.
The evening will be filled with fierce fun and excitement as over 15 drag performers “bring it on” and give you all they’ve got and will include audience favorites Ethel Bourbon, Evian Waters, and Foxy Brown, among others. The event will also be highlighted with a door prize contest featuring a Grand Prize Travel Package with airline tickets provided by Orbitz. In addition to the presenting sponsorship of Hydrate Chicago, additional production assistance and sponsorship has been provided by G. Thomas Ward Photography, Maxey MediaWorks, Orbitz, Beatnix, Christine DePaepe of A&N Mortgage and BOB Technology Consultation.
The one-night-only performance of LIPSTICK & LYRICS: BRING IT ON! is at Hydrate Chicago, 3458 N Halsted Street, Chicago, on Friday, November 6, 2009. The hosted bar opens at 8PM and the show begins at 9:30PM. Tickets are $15 in advance via online at www.cgmc.org; or $20 at the door the night of the event. All proceeds from the event will benefit Chicago Gay Men’s Chorus.
