Justin Bond’s Lustre
June 24, 2008
They are calling it an event for the Summer Solstice, but we know better. A gender-fucking cabaret show during Pride week? This is one of the many times I wished I lived in NYC. The show is a cabaret-style revue, featuring a number of transgendered performers including Our Lady J, Glenn Marla, Nathan Carrera, The Pixie Harlots, and other special guests.
From theatremania.com:
While giving plenty of time over to his guests, Bond — who sings to the piano accompaniment of music director Our Lady J, and a trio of onstage musicians — remains at the center of it all. For those familiar with his work as Kiki, it sometimes seems like you’re witnessing a younger version of the boozed up chanteuse, as Bond’s distinct vocal delivery isn’t all that different from that of his most famous creation. The charismatic performer also tells several amusing anecdotes, and delivers quips such as “Slightly retarded men make the best lovers, because they believe love can last.”
