Backstage, just before Rainbow Alliance’s annual drag show is about to start, professional drag queen Tajma Hall gets ready behind a screen. Makeup artists powder the faces of backup dancers. And in front of a lighted mirror, someone fusses with emcee Brian Coleman’s hair extensions.

“I feel powerful,” says Coleman, a Communication senior, while he checks his reflection. “Nothing says power to me like a pair of pumps. I feel ready to take on anything, and anyone, for that matter.”
