Mr./Miss Gay Fiesta for Life
From the Coronation of the Queen of the Order of the Alamo (April 20 at the Majestic) to Cornyation, the spooftacular spectacle it inspired (April 19-21 at the Empire), Fiesta loves over-the-top pageantry almost as much as the drag community, which famously crowns queens year-round. Hosted by the nonprofit For Life Pageant System and starring Valentino Capri and Shanice Black, the 2016 edition of Mr./Miss Gay Fiesta for Life judges aspiring royalty in categories ranging from High-Fashion Cowgirl and Urban Cowboy to Evening Gown and Onstage Q&A.
Free ($40 to compete), 10:30pm Thu, Bonham Exchange, 411 Bonham St., (210) 271-3811, bonhamexchange.com. — Bryan Rindfuss
