Hendersonville Theatre will host  DRAG 101, a musical event hosted by internationally celebrated drag artist Delighted Tobehere, during its 4th annual Pride Celebration at 7:30 p.m. Friday, June 13. 
 

The interactive evening of entertainment promises to be educational and outrageously fun. Through comedy, live performance, and personal storytelling, it will offer audiences an inside look into the world of drag. 

DRAG 101 is the ultimate primer for anyone curious about the art and culture of drag. Through humor, live demonstration, Q&A, and heartfelt moments, Delighted invites the audience into her world, demystifying drag while celebrating the creativity, resilience, and joy it represents.

Originally from South Carolina, Delighted has traveled the world spreading joy and self-empowerment through drag. With accolades from America’s Got Talent and The Huffington Post and sold-out shows from New York to New Zealand, she is a trailblazer who advocates authenticity and inclusion in entertainment.
