http://www.redandblack.com/2010/06/23/drag-queen-flaunts-mask-theatre-major-creatively-hones-alternate-persona/Chianti Milan is known as the "Classic City C***." And that's her name for a reason.
Thomas Wynne created the persona of Chianti Milan in 2007 when he began performing drag in the Athens community. Now a senior majoring in theatre at the University, he and Chianti have come a long way.
The drag community of Athens has been around for more than 20 years, providing a cornerstone for the queer community. Like many subcultures, this one gets little notice from people outside of its exclusive membership, which is ironic considering its goal is to bring people of different backgrounds together.
