“If you want a better show, $20 will get the best drag brunch you've ever seen in your life.” When calculating how much money to bring to brunch, the Los Angeles-based drag queen Meatball suggests a baseline of $2 per drag queen per performance number.

For the uninitiated, drag brunch is a midday entertainment in a restaurant or bar* featuring a succession of performers dressed in drag — so many sequins before 5:00 PM! — singing and/or lip-synching with big energy and commanding attention and Wigs of Breathtaking Self-Importance.

A drag brunch is a type of drag show in which drag kings and drag queens perform for an audience while the audience is served typical brunch foods and drinks.

It's OK to have fun, but don't disrupt the show, and don't get handsy. A performer might dance with you for a sec – let it happen, and then step back to your spot. And if a queen wants you to put a tip in her bra, she'll let you know. Queens are many things but subtle is not one of them.
