As night fell on March 1, Webster’s Cafe and Book Store came alive with the sounds of Penn State Hillel and Opulence putting on their first collaborative drag show for the Jewish holiday of Purim. Penn State queens wowed the crowd and the venue was filled to the brim with an enthusiastic audience.

Queens get ready by taking a few pictures at the Hillel photo booth.

Audience members were encouraged to tip their favorite queens.

Hexxa got the show started with an elaborate routine.

Master of Ceremonies Jose Queervo also got in on the fun.

These queens didn’t just look good — they showcased lots of athleticism.

Mz. Peaches was a crowd favorite once again.

Hexxa takes a breather at the end of her routine.

The queens made sure to get up close and personal with as many audience members as possible.

Drag brings queens of all shapes, sizes and colors together.

As a brand new organization, Opulence hopes to continue collaborating and creating with other clubs.
