Pearl, co-runner-up of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season seven, will be at Town (2009 8th St., N.W.) on Saturday, Oct. 17 at 10:30 p.m.
Meet-and-greet tickets are available for $20. They ensure a seat to the show, early access to the venue at 9 p.m. and a meeting with Pearl and photo. There are no general admission tickets but there is a $12 cover. Doors open at 10 p.m. for general admission.
Pearl got off to a rough “Drag Race” start but pulled her act together, took the judge’s critiques to heart and came out in the top three by season’s end. Although Ginger and Violet were here for Pride, this is Pearl’s first D.C. appearance. Violet returns Nov. 11 for a show at the Fillmore in Silver Spring, Md.
