SAN FRANCISCO, CA - 12th annual San Francisco Drag King Contest, produced by DragStrip Productions, the biggest and longest running Drag King Competition in the World and, according to the San Francisco Weekly, "A Parade of Gender-Bending Eye Candy," will take place on Saturday, August 18, 2007, 8pm at San Francisco's Mega-Art and Event Space, SomArts. The internationally acclaimed outlandish celebration of Sex, Drag and Rock and Roll will bring out the animal in every attendee and participant as part of the proceeds will benefit for PAWS (Pets Are Wonderful Support).

"The San Francisco Drag King Contest is a mash-up of the Miss America Pageant, American Idol, Halloween and a Monster Truck Show," states impresario Fudgie Frottage. "We have every kind of drag from suits to fruits; studs to puds -- Everything from Elvis impersonators to Leather Daddies, Wrestlers, Contortionists, Hillbillies, Clowns, Jocks, and their female counterparts. It's a mind-boggling, dress-to-impress occasion, where part of the fun is just trying tell the performers and audience members apart."

Considered to be "One of the most boisterous parties of the year," by the San Francisco Chronicle, and "Dripping and swaggering with machismo" by the San Francisco Weekly, the San Francisco Bay Guardian also states, "Prepare to be amazed by the variety, astounded by the veracity, and properly impressed by the figurative and literal balls on display."

Viril Virtuoso, FUDGIE FROTTAGE, "The Man with The Biggest Balls in Show Business," and Internationally Renowned Burlesque Chanteuse, Comic and Siren, THE INDRA, as "The Indro vs. The Indra", a bi-sexual, bi-polar, half male, half female character, will preside over the festivities as Masters (and 1/2 Mistress) of Ceremonies.

The star-studded event will showcase BUCK NAKED, winner of the 2006 Solo King Category for his dapper style and scandelous dancing girls, THE SLICKK BOIS, 2006 troupe winners, for their provocative boy band choreography, gender illusionist ARTY FISHAL and the live, hip hop group, THE MOMMA'S BOYZ and burlesque beauties, THE TWILIGHT VIXEN REVUE. In addition, rock band WOOD, voted "Best of The Bay for 70's anthems and facial hair" by the San Francisco Bay Guardian, will also perform. And - as always - the gender bending contestants will be the center of attention.

With contestants baring such monikers as L. RON HUBBY, SEIMAN MARCUS, PAPI COCK, and SHERWOOD SUCK, expect an evening of hilarious entertainment and outrageous theatrical performances where lip-synch, live rock, fetish, burlesque, hip-hop, rap, interpretive dance and shtick meet and compete.

"The San Francisco Drag King Contest has inspired me to find my inner dude, and I'm half-way there" says Super Star The Indra. I performed my half man, half woman act recently at the London Burlesque Fest and received everything from dropped jaws to standing ovations. My motto: "If it doesn't look phallic enough, turn it sideways."

Contestants are judged on talent, creativity, studliness, sex appeal, originality, humor, make-up/facial hair and fashion by the illustrious panel of nationally known celebrity judges, including 2005 Drag King and 2004 Mr. Trannyshack JAY WALKER, SIMONE DeLaGETTO of Harlem Shake Burlesque, SISTER ROMA of Hot House Video, and special guest ANIMAL, (formerly of the internationally-known musical duo, Bitch and Animal).

Enforced Dress Code: King, Queen, Faux, Fetish, Formal, High Femme, Festive.
