When we arrived in Queensland six years ago we were introduced to the quirky mayhem of Drag Queen, Scarlett Fever at the Beat Megaclub, Fortitude Valley on a quiet Sunday night. I was struck by the originality and grace of this gazelle like performer.

Nowadays, connecting with our gay tribe is limited to discrete preplanned visits to Brisbane.

Last night, I was thrilled to see Scarlett Fever at the busy Wickham hotel. Scarlett’s eyes and character have grown into the wonderful contemporary artist they are today.
