Adventures Of A Drag Queen

Beschreibung

Jeff Kristian is an author, recording artist, actor, cabaret performer, television presenter and radio host. Between 2010 and 2015 he wrote a much-loved monthly magazine column called Adventures of a Drag Queen. Through a collection of anectodes, thoughts, opinions and observations from over a quarter-of-a-century in harness, Jeff reflects upon his un-hinged little world and its inhabitants through drag-tinted spectacles, with light-hearted warmth and humour. A little exagerated, a bit extreme and in no particular order, this autobiographical memoir of short-stories recounts the colourful life of an extraordinary entertainer in a very personal, revealing and often thought-provoking way.

Autor

Bermondsey born author, actor and singer Jeff Kristian songwriting and recording career began in the heart of Basildon's 1982 music scene - at the time hailed as the defining birthplace of British electronic ambient synth-pop and launch pad of Depeche Mode, The Assembly, Yazoo, Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet. He has continued recording and songwriting for himself and others ever since, including film and television. As frontman to his band Dooyah! in the late 1980's, he performed at some of London's most prestigious live venues, including The 100 Club, Dingwalls, The Marquee Club and The Rock Garden. Just a few years later he was headlining solo in Soho at legendary Ronnie Scott's for the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors. But he is probably best remembered for his twenty-five years as a female impersonator - in his own record-breaking, award-winning show on stage, in film and on television. His life in Essex and his fifteen-year residency in London's Soho became the influences for his debut novel Where D'Ya Put Yer Willy? and its sequel Where's Yer Willy Now? His third book Adventures Of A Drag Queen documents his work in harness... a light-hearted view of the world through drag-tinted spectacles!
