Seattle-based musician and drag performer Michete recently underwent facial feminization surgery (FFS) and has not been seen in public for several weeks. Her fans and foes are receiving information about her surgery results only through a steady drip of unhinged and conflicting tweets. “Joe came over tonight and told me that I look [REDACTED],” Michete tweeted recently. It’s chaotic and brilliant.

But in a very on-brand move, Michete is hosting Clapped!, a drag and music event where she’ll dramatically reveal her new face. Done in collaboration with the BeautyBoiz collective, the party (and one of the last events at Fred Wildlife Refuge) will feature some of the hottest drag entertainers and DJs working in Seattle.
