Jinkx & DeLa dish on turning vendettas into art, their 7th holiday tour & this exciting moment for queer theater
tiiiiiiime to start making the yuletide gay, and who better to help with that than Santa’s queerest helpers: Jinkxs Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme?For the seventh year in a row, the RuPaul’s Drag Race superstars and icons of the drag and theater scenes are hopping in their big ‘ole sleigh (a.k.a.
a tour bus) and spreading some much needed cheer with The Jinkx & Dela Holiday Show, touring across the U.S. and Canada now through the end of December.Subscribe to our newsletter for your front-row seat to all things entertainment with a sprinkle of everything else queer.The all-new production promises to be extra nutty (hint, hint) this year, while bringing that classic Jinkx & DeLa magic we all know and love: there will be hilarious song parodies, comedic hijinks (maybe even a “high Jinkx”?), send-ups of some seasonal traditions, elaborate dance numbers, fabulous costumes, and a heaping serving of camp.And it’s even more special that the queens are keeping the spirit alive this year, especially as they continue to soar to exciting new heights in other corners of their careers (Jinkx, for her part, was just announced as a star of Broadway’s newly reimagined take on Pirates Of Penzance).
Not to go there but *now more than ever* it really feels like we need an excuse to come together, to be merry & bright & queer in a space where all are welcomed, to create some new traditions of our own.
What we mean to say is: We must’ve been extra good this year because Santa’s bringing us Jinkx & Dela.Now in the first leg of the tour, Queerty grabbed some time with Jinkx and Dela, welcoming them as the latest guests in our rapid-fire Q&A series, Dishin’ It.
