Where Are All The Drag Kings?

Many Drag Queens have been propelled into international stardom as RuPaul's Drag Race has elevated the art form into the homes of the masses, but not everyone has been invited to the party.

Despite calls for greater diversity, Drag Kings and Trans artists have been largely left out of the spotlight, but that doesn't mean they don't exist or perform regularly to adoring fans.

The Quicky speaks to four very different artists and an expert in drag culture to try and answer the question, where are all the Drag Kings?
