What happens when your side hustle, your passion, becomes a full-time gig?

A sudden layoff in 2020 led Seattle drag queen Jane Don’t to put her performance career into overdrive. She invested time in making dresses, wigs, jokes, and routines; after a year of being holed up at home, Jane Don’t wanted to show off her hard work. Jane Don't was booked and busy all summer 2021.

Senior producer Brandi Fullwood spoke with Jane Don't about pivoting to drag full time and living with fewer regrets.
