    Behind the Make-Up - Take it Off

    What is life really like behind the makeup? In Episode 4 of Drag and the Hag, we're pulling back the curtain and having an honest conversation about what happens when the wigs come off, the makeup is wiped away, and the spotlight fades. Being a drag performer is about so much more than glitter, glamour and great entertainment. In this episode, we talk openly about life behind the makeup, balancing our personal lives with performing, and the emotional and mental challenges that can come with always being expected to entertain, even on the days when we're not feeling our best. We discuss the pressure to show up, the difference between our stage personas and our everyday selves, and why it's so important to look after your mental wellbeing while working in the entertainment industry. Whether you're a fan of drag, a fellow performer, or simply curious about the reality behind the costumes, this episode offers an honest, heartfelt and sometimes humorous look at life beyond the stage. Topics include: • Life behind the makeup • The reality of being a drag performer • Mental health and wellbeing • Performing while struggling emotionally • The difference between on-stage and off-stage life • Finding balance in the entertainment industry • Authentic conversations, laughter and real experiences If you enjoy honest conversations about drag culture, mental health, LGBTQ+ life, performance, theatre and behind-the-scenes stories, don't forget to like, subscribe, and turn on notifications so you never miss an episode of Drag and the Hag.
