Sunday Night Drag at the Round-up Saloon

January 10, 2021

El Paso performer Monique Norell at the Round-up Saloon.

The Round-up Saloon has become the Dallas’ premiere drag venue. They have drag shows almost every day of the week, either on the main floor or in the former game room, which is now called the “Red Lounge.”

Today we have some shots of the Sunday night drag show, which usually starts around 7:30pm.

This show had a huge cast, including:

Angelique Davenport
Chevelle Brooks (Houston)
Jerssy Parga
Macarena
Marissa Kage
Mayra D’Lorenzo (host)
Monique Norell (El Paso)
Raquel Blake (host)

It is really easy for shows with such a huge cast to become tedious, but each of these performers brought something different to keep us entertained.

It was also exciting to see visiting talent from across Texas. We’ll definitely need to check out shows in Houston and El Paso post-COVID.

Here are photos from the show!

Marissa Kage’s Drag Show at Havana Lounge

Last Friday we managed to get great seats for Marissa Kage’s drag show at Havana Lounge. It was a great show with some of the most booked-and-blessed drag queens on Cedar Springs.

You can catch Marissa show every Friday night at Havana’s with a showtime around 11pm.

The cast for this show was:

Marissa Kage (host)
Emeka Bless
Tia Tamera

One of my favorite things about Havana’s is that it has managed to keep a nightclub-like atmosphere while operating as a socially-distant restaurant. However, because of the table-service and strict capacity requirement, it is very important to get there early if you don’t want to be stuck outside in line.

Most people arrive about 20 minutes before showtime, so 10:30pm is the safest bet. Arriving early also gives you time to chow-down on their amazing menu before you have an audience.
