Oh my god! Did you hear who is coming to town once again? … Ok, You are taking too long! It’s the crazy and fun Dungeons and Drag Queens Show with the dungeon master and comedian Paul Curry plus the musical wizard Casrson Grubb. This time around they are at The District Bar – ooh what an exciting night this will be!
I have personally had the opportunity to see Dungeons and Drag Queens twice before and each time it has been different, funny and totally outrageous. I recently had the opportunity to chat with both Paul and Carson.
This is now your third time entertaining the Spokane audiences, what keeps you bringing the show back?
We were having a drink at Natural 20 Brewing Co. after a show when a man came up to me, touched me lightly on the shoulder, and whispered, “Third time’s the charm.” His eyes looked like exploding stars. Also, it’s just a city with good vibes.
I have seen your show twice and will be watching it again on October 5th at the Knitting Factory’s new bar, The District. My question is, so far each time I have seen the show the effects have gotten cooler, can you tell us how you choose what you use and how different they might be in October?
Oh ho ho, we have some surprises for you! We’ve got animated, improvised locations and creatures on the game screen, and we’ve incorporated more traditional drag elements into the show. Let’s just say it’s mostly live-play D&D, but every so often, things get wild.
I have watched your other shows on YouTube and the drag queens are a big part of the show. How do you choose the drag queens in each city?
It’s a very select few queens who can play our game. Improv skills, fashion choices, personality, game knowledge—momma, we look for it ALL. This time, some seasoned Seattle queens are joining us, so it’s sure to be spicy.
The crazy and fun part of this show is how you and Carson play off of the drag queens’ antics as if you have rehearsed this hundreds of times. Can you tell us what goes through your minds from second to second while on stage and do you two have a special language you use to signal each other ?
The threesome scene from Challengers has been living rent-free in my head, but this time everyone’s an elf. Maybe I’m bi? No… I just like tennis. When it comes to Carson and me communicating on stage, we exchange glances like, “This NPC is gonna die, isn’t it?” Or, “Play some smooth jazz while this NPC dies.” Or, “I think this NPC is gonna have a Chappell Roan funeral ballad.”
I will leave you with this little tidbit – if you like fun, if you like interacting with a show, if you want a great meal and good drinks then grab your swords, get your staff and put on some heals for this is a night you will not soon forget… unless you drink too much and pass out…..why are you so sloppy? See you there!
