We’re on a quest to help you make the most of your summer in Madison. 


Brandon Rounds is the mastermind behind Live on Queen, a free outdoor drag show and dance party happening this Friday, June 23, in downtown Madison. It’s the latest installment of the Live on King street series of free concerts that take place on the 100 block of King Street in front of the Majestic Theatre. Catch Brandon performing as Bianca Lynn Breeze, Madison’s hardest working drag queen.


Dylan Brogan gets the dish on Madison’s drag scene and why, despite what you hear from haters, drag is perhaps the opposite of stripping.
