Trailblazing Portland drag legend Darcelle XV passed away on March 23rd at the age of 92 after a Guinness World Record making career in drag. We were beyond fortunate to interview Darcelle (aka Walter Cole) back in 2019, along with Anthony Hudson aka Carla Rossi (and co-host of Gaylords of Darkness podcast), as part of the Listen Up Podcast festival. In memory of Darcelle, we're sharing our conversation with her here, discussing how she got started in the true Wild West of drag, the power the art form has had on audiences and on Walter, of course the impact of Drag Race, and what the future of drag looks like.Want even more Alright Mary?
