CV NEWS FEED // West Potomac High School in northern Virginia is set to host a “drag” brunch on Saturday, May 4, before a showing of the vulgar LGBTQ musical “Kinky Boots.”
The taxpayer-funded public high school is located just outside the city of Alexandria in the Washington, D.C. suburbs. It is part of the Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) system.
“Join us for a delicious brunch and witty entertainment from some of DC’s most fabulous performers,” the event’s description states.
The hour-long brunch is scheduled to begin at 12pm at the school’s Kogelman Theatre – with a showing of “Kinky Boots” to follow at 1pm. Tickets are currently being sold for $15 per person, with significant discounts for groups.
Featured “drag queens” include Dixie Crystal, who the flier describes as an “Atlanta native and 22-year Air Force veteran” who “has been doing drag for over 30 years and is the drag mother to Pirouette, a classically trained dancer born in Los Angeles.”
Pirouette is also slated to appear at the event.
“Joining them is Orpheus Rose, DC’s only masked male burlesque performer,” the flier adds. “Together, they form the Haus of Crystal, offering a diverse and unique performance style and perspective on performance art.”
An email sent last week by the West Potomac Theatre Boosters announced: “Beyond the Page Theatre Company is thrilled to announce our spring musical production of Kinky Boots, in collaboration with FCPS Pride!”
“This musical contains strong language and mature content,” the email warns.
Beyond the Page is the theater company at West Potomac High School.
The school’s showing of the controversial musical will begin on Thursday, April 25, and conclude on May 4 – the day of the “drag” brunch.
After the 1pm showing of “Kinky Boots” on Saturday April 27, there is scheduled to be a half hour-long “Talkback with FCPS Pride.”
The email states: “Join us for a 30 minute discussion with FCPS Pride, where we’ll explore the significance of producing LGBTQ+ plays/musicals, delve into drag history, and explore ways to support the LGBTQ+ community.”
Per its website, FCPS Pride describes itself as follows:
We are LGBTQIA+ staff, parents/guardians/family of LGBTQIA+ students, LGBTQIA+ family members and allies in the school and community joining together for a public school system in Fairfax County and City in which each person is welcome, safe, included and respected regardless of their identities, including but not limited to identities related to gender identity, sexual orientation, and gender expression.
Catholic lawyer Cathy Ruse, noted that a “drag” event will be hosted at a public high school for the “first time in the history of our county.” Ruse is a Fairfax County resident.
“A few years ago, a Drag Queen event for toddlers was sponsored by the McLean Library,” Ruse recounted.
She noted that several faithful Catholics “attended and prayed the Rosary during the ‘performance.’”
“One person sprinkled Holy Water,” she added. “This unnerved the ‘performers’ to say the least, and we were able to provide eye-witness accounts to local media.”
On a similar note, Ruse encouraged the faithful to attend the “drag” brunch in protest – if it continues as planned.
“Bring your Rosary and your cell phone to videotape the performers and the attendees,” she stated. “Please pray for the cancellation of this event, for the conversion of heart of the men involved, for the protection of all of the children exposed to it.”
“Men in drag are the shock troops for the Marxist transgender movement,” the lawyer indicated. “It is not funny. It is highly offensive to women and a mockery of women. It propagandizes and sexualizes children.”
Ruse currently runs Catholics Engaged for Fairfax and is a Governor of Ave Maria School of Law. She is a former Family Research Council Senior Fellow for Legal Studies. Ruse is married to award-winning Catholic journalist and author Austin Ruse.
FCPS is the largest school district in the state of Virginia.
As CatholicVote previously reported, it is also
one of the largest in the country, serving over 181,000 students. Encompassing many affluent suburbs of Washington D.C., Fairfax County has been ranked in the top five wealthiest counties in the U.S. with a median household income well into six figures and nearly double the national average.

Bull crap like this is why my daughter and son-in-law are budgeting and investing so that when they later have kids they can afford for my daughter to take off work and homeschool.
Funny thing about that is we would have thought the same thing when we were in High School.
We would have given these clowns the third degree.
I think the masked burlesque performer is Lindsey Graham.
The Perverts don’t have to hang around outside schools anymore they work there or get invited in
The rich & “educated” dwell there.
Brunch is a little expensive. Maybe they should have made it a tea.

My group of 17yr olds would have “escorted” them out and off the property, very quickly. That klind of filth was unheard of, back in the early/mid-60s.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Drag is to women what blackface is to blacks.
Drag represents ZERO real women in real life. Even hookers aren't that bad.
Drag is simply a mockery of femininity.
Ok groomers
The Left...
They protest against beautiful women modeling lingerie for Victoria’s Secret.
But, they celebrate ugly men in “drag.”
Unreal, isn’t it?
