Hello my darlings, welcome to my pink, perfectly preened corner of the internet! Today, I, your fabulous time-traveling tutuer, Emma, am whisking you off to a time just 39 years in the future – 2057!
Can you even imagine what the world of drag will be like then?!
(Just try to keep those whispers of fabulous out of your minds darling, until we arrive at the chosen year, okay? I know, it’s hard, trust me. It’s the only way I keep the pink tutu's powers at bay - and no, we don’t want to lose those! Imagine a world without them, oh, the horror.)
The year is 2057, my loves, and oh my gosh – drag has literally gone global! I cannot believe how far it’s come. It’s been decades since drag queens started to break through barriers. Look how far we’ve come: no longer just seen in dive bars or back rooms, we are front and center on Broadway and, like, everywhere you look!
But hold onto your pearls, darling, because things are going to get even more glamorous – the drag queens of 2057 are performing in a whole new dimension.
Yes, the futuristic world of drag queens has embraced the very latest technology – there’s holographic performances, interactive displays with audiences and…get this! Time-travelling drag queens!
Imagine my absolute delight! Can you believe it? Just as I'm going about my daily routine and strutting my stuff on a London stage (wearing, of course, my ever so elegant pink tutu!), bam, suddenly I’m teleported to 2057.
Can you imagine? I’m trying to process it all; the shiny new drag scene, the futuristic looks, the mind-boggling technologies...It’s mind blowing!
Anyway, I’m standing here on a giant digital screen - yes, it's a drag show on a giant digital screen in Times Square no less, with all these fantastic future drag queens. I have to say, their looks are beyond everything - think: iridescent fabrics, cyber-glow skin, metallic accents… You know me, I’m already obsessed.
And what are the crowds like? Imagine every single person in the street dressed to the nines! I mean gorgeous, glittering gowns – it’s like stepping onto a set for a musical about the future – pure and utter fabulousness!
I’m bursting to tell you about the performers but… well… you'd never believe it, not for a moment.
There are hologram queens, cyborg queens, robots in drag… the whole shebang! They’re all using some form of augmented reality. The costumes are a sight to behold; imagine holographic capes that appear to be moving and swirling like clouds! And the makeup? Like luminous glitter is radiating out of their pores, like their skin is shining from the inside out. It's truly captivating.
This really is the ultimate stage for them – their performances were so slick and their dance moves were so sharp, they looked like laser beams, darling!
Let me tell you, my pink tutu was making a splash in this digital age too – it's a little bit like wearing timeless elegance against a futuristic backdrop.
One thing's for certain – the drag scene is evolving at breakneck speed, it seems! I’m always excited to see what’s coming next in the world of drag. It’s exciting! And you know what? My biggest wish?
To get every single one of you darling creatures to put on a pink tutu – in the future! Oh, to imagine!
It's inspiring to think that all this came about because drag queens, throughout history, never stopped pushing boundaries, and always stayed true to themselves! I, for one, am absolutely thrilled to see where the next thirty years will take drag.
Keep checking back every month for more time travel adventures on my pink-tutu.com website – my pink tutu’s always packed and ready for more time travelling fun, dear. Until next time!
XOXO
Emma.
