Are you ready for a brilliant drag queen act to once again blitz Hitchin and North Herts over the next few nights!

Magenta Slipperz, north Herts' most flamboyant drag queen performing at venues all across Hitchin and surrounding areas from tonight [Thursday, September 23] across this weekend.

Magenta Slipperz will be appearing at the Angel's Share in the Arcade tonight [Thursday] and in Market Place on Friday from 6pm.

Magenta then heads over to Letchworth for her gig on Saturday evening before coming back to Hitchin on Sunday to perform at Molly Malones.

Speaking to Hitchin Nub News, in an UP CLOSE feature Magenta said: "I'm very much in the new wave of drag performers.

"My main thing is singing. I perform songs from all the decades for all the age groups.

"I first got into drag when I was asked to take part in a cabaret show.

"The producer knew I was an actor and asked if I was interested. I was. She asked me if I would perform in drag as that's what they needed.

"I said I'd give it a go - and so Magenta Slipperz was created."
