Description
On February 27, a local drag performer named Mrs. Ivana planned a 2-hour “Family Fun Show”, an all-ages drag event to take place on Sunday, April 23 at a Forsyth County building. On April 12, Mrs. Ivana celebrated over 150 tickets sold for the event. Despite the event material framed as “100% appropriate for children” and alcohol-free, the event drew intense community backlash from right-wing ‘parental rights’ organizers who claimed the event was targeting children for “indoctrination”. After prolonged backlash and claims of threats against organizers and would-be attendees, the organizers canceled the event and refunded ticket holders.
