The Internet. Artificial intelligence. Drag queens. All of those things came together at the MGM Music Hall for Werq the World’s latest drag extravaganza. This time, queens from the RuPaul’s Drag Race roster were transported into the deep web and had to fight (and lip-sync) to break free from powerful, sentient beings trying to steal their charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent. The production and stage set up looked like it was taken right from a sci-fi movie set and featured a balcony connected to a rotating door that reassembled a test tube. The outfits were futuristic, the dance moves were on point, and the hair flips defied gravity. There was even crowd participation, with Lady Camden plucking two local drag queens from the audience to battle it out in a lip-sync with two of the tour’s queens. Werq the World and the queens pulled out all the stops to deliver a stellar performance.
