We dance, we sing, we blow bubbles
but most importantly…
We defend the compassionate storytelling by brave drag performers and help make it a beautifully joyful experience for kids!
Borrow a rainbow umbrella, we’ll have water, snacks and of course, bubbles!
RDC has been doing this for 3+ years now.

We take our jobs very seriously, but you’ve gotta, gotta, gotta have some fun, too!
While super drag storyteller, Charlemagne Chateau, entertained the kids with books and movement, RDC volunteers entertained themselves with fun fashion, photo posing, a patch-swap and of course music with bubbles. And oh! Yummy cupcakes were provided by Loyalty!
