People have all sorts of holiday traditions—making cookies, throwing colorful lights up around houses, drinking a pint of peppermint schnapps and watching Bad Santa on TV where the curse words are all messed up… you know. Another tradition you need to add is going to the annual dance-drag-cabaret-burlesque-magical-fun-time that is Homo for the Holidays. The all-star cast (including drag superstars Jinkx Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme) not only put the fruit in the cake, they will put a glorious smile on the face of even your bah-humbuggiest gay uncle.
