When coronavirus created nationwide shutdowns last March, artists and entertainers were among those whose steady income evaporated in a matter of days. That includes one Atlanta group known for reinvention and staying power: drag queens.
“I went from performing and producing multiple shows a week, managing talent, being a makeup artist for TV to a dead stop, nothing,” said Phoenix, the local showrunner, club queen, Brooks family legend and “RuPaul’s Drag Race” alum.
The citywide quarantines followed by scattered re-openings, re-closings and smaller crowd sizes throughout 2020 was a wakeup call for 20-year veterans like Phoenix as well as queens at every level of experience.
