Olympia 50 Londyn Bradshaw and Rainier 47 Paul Paradisco

If you’re a lover of “court” drag and the delicious pomp and ceremony that goes along with it, then you’ll need to start preparing….it’s really not THAT far away until the start of the 2023 Imperial Sovereign Court of Seattle, The Olympic and Rainier Empire’s season of elections and crownings! The 51st Coronation has the theme/title of “Seattle Horror Story” so this year’s season of court doings should be especially delightful.

All the info about upcoming events is down below…there’s a lot of things to check out but the outgoing Rainier 47 Paul Paradisco and Olympia 50 Londyn Bradshaw invite you to join in with as many events as you can…the first one is only a couple weeks away and then starts off a chain of events leading up to the big 51st coronation on Saturday, February 18th at the Westin Seattle Grand Ballroom.

The deets:

The Imperial Sovereign Court of Seattle, The Olympic and Rainier Enpire along with Rainier 47 Paul Paradisco and Olympia 50 Londyn Bradshaw invite you to the official events of Coronation 51

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
