San Francisco's highly diverse drag scene is stunningly prolific and talented, and its about to get even more spectacular, all right from inside the Folsom District's SF Oasis. Happening on May 28th, the city will be graced by two of the most legendary drag queens from RuPaul's Drag Race- Violet Chachki and Gottmik.
As part of their nationwide “No Gorge” Pride Tour, this night at Oasis will be a dazzling spectacle filled with incredible gender-bending burlesque and riveting transmasculine rock-inspired performances, all initmately put on by these internationally-lauded queens.

Violet Chachki was RuPaul's Drag Race Season 7 winner in 2015, and has since been a confident and fiery inspiration for everything cutting-edge in fashion, burlesque, and music.
Aside from walking for Moschino in Milan Fashion Week's Fall 2018 Collection and stunning at the Met Gala's 2019 Camp: Notes on Fashion, Violet is most known for her explosive and gravity-defying aerial burlesque theatrics. Joining Dita Von Teese's jaw-dropping neo-burlseque The Art of Teese in 2017, Violet is no stranger to flying high, and you can expect her to elegantly soar with her aerial hoops in a San Francisco-exclusive performance.
Equally gorgeous and exceptionally talented is Gottmik, who not only tied for third in Rupaul Drag Race's 13th season, but is also a makeup prodigy, having worked with Lil Nas X, Paris Hilton, Todrick Hall, and more.
A rockstar in not only makeup artistry and electrifying perfromance, but also in media, Gottmik is both one of the top-followed queens on Instagram with over 1.3 million followers, and the cohost of the No Gorge YouTube and podcast with Chachki.
With the dynamic duo discussing everything on their fashion and artistry, expect them to hold meaningful and impactful banter at Oasis that reflects all their progress and hope for this Pride month.
