Two Ways To Drag For A Reason

Azkabash  |  Odeon  |  1335 Story Ave.  |  Search Facebook  |  $30 general admission, $50 VIP  |  8 p.m.-2 a.m.

Sure, millennials have to deal with horrific college debt and a bleak climate future, but we came of age with “Harry Potter” and the popularization of drag shows, so who is the real winner here, boomers? Azkabash combines all of the good things of our post-recession reality: a “Harry Potter”-themed drag show with tarot card readings and craft cocktails. Plus, it’s all for a good cause, the product of Potterheads with Purpose. Proceeds will go to the Kentucky Youth Law Project, Inc., a free legal service for “LGBTQI+ youth.” Costumes are encouraged, and if you spring for a VIP ticket, you’ll receive a handmade wand and one drink ticket.

Drag The Halls  |  Play Louisville  |  1101 E. Washington St.  |  Search Facebook  |  Prices vary  |  9 p.m.-4 a.m.

There’s nothing like spending the holiday with family — no, not that one. Your Play Mate family! Your favorite drag performers will be dancing to your favorite Christmas songs, a jolly combination to be sure. If you wear holiday attire, you’ll get in free until 10 p.m. Afterward, it’s a $10 cover for 21-plus and $15 for 18- to 20-year-olds. —Danielle Grady
