Under the Bouffant, a Sewer Mouth on Go-Go Wings

A once proud and subversive warrior tribe that deified freakdom, drag queens have become awfully mainstream. Tame ->-bleeped-<-s are now passing for Kardashians, while biological women all over television are communing with their inner drag divas on shows like "Mad Fashion," "RuPaul's Drag U" and "The Real Housewives of You Name It."

But whatever happened to authentically scary, sewer-mouthed, gutter-glam fierceness? That endangered but not extinct form of alternative entertainment has a resplendently tacky old-school flag bearer in Lady Bunny, frugging with infectious abandon on a toxic cloud of Aqua Net in her first cabaret show in 10 years, "That Ain't No Lady!"
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
