"Some drag is about impersonation, impressions, and imitation. Our drag is about innovation, invention and irreverent gender(fuck) performance." -Heywood Wakefield.
Here's some info about the show/event...but there's more at http://www.truthserum.org...this is a bit out of date...
Truth Serum and Heywood Wakefield started TraniWreck, the all gender, all genre cabaret show, in August 2004 and by February 2005 the show had spawned a second show called Wreckage: The Contest Show. At the final round of Wreckage 2005 we crowned Windsor Newton "Boston's Biggest Wreck" and awarded him $500 in cash and prizes.
Six preliminary rounds starting in April 2006 and ending in September 2006 yielded 11 contestants for Wreckage: The Final Round. And we crowned J. Roush and his friends "Boston's Biggest Wreck 2006" and awarded them $500 in cash and prizes. Check the photos to see how it went down!
"...Wreckage, likely the most surreal event Boston has to offer, remains a must see, where creativity and eccentricity rule the night." Bay Windows April 28, 2005
