Drag Queen Mr Pussy Travels To Tramore
FRESH from the plastic surgeon's chair, Mr. Pussy is back with some new frocks, a new venue and positively purring about her new show. Billed as Ireland's most misleading lady, I spent a cosy afternoon with the legendary drag-queen otherwise known as Alan Amsby. We had lunch, sipped Champagne and discussed supermodel's pants, among other things, her fantastic new cabaret show. Quite literally the original of the species, in Ireland anyway, the vampy Mr. Pussy gave birth to drag in this country, spawning many of today's great nightclub queens - including Miss Panti,Veda and Shirley Temple Bar - and is now called 'the drag mother' within the business. I hate to use the term 'hey-day', but back in the 1990s Alan's star was probably shining its brightest, as he regularly enjoyed hanging out with A-Listers at his own restaurant/club on Suffolk St, simply titled Mr. Pussy's. Every Hollywood star from Mel Gibson to Sean Connery came to watch Alan's Gay Bingo. The Rolling Stones, Sinead O'Connor, REM, you name it, if they were big in the charts they were seen eating Pussy Pies and sipping a Pint of Pussy - that was just milk in a bottle by the way! Mr. Pussy, who is entertaining in Waterford this week for the The South East Gay Awards (which Gay Weekend at The Grand Hotel was nominated for Best Event of the Year) will be making his debut appearance in Tramore @ The Grand Hotel on Easter Sunday, 1st May. Come and watch this cabaret that is hilarious and entertaining for everybody on Sunday at 8.30pm and is followed by the fantastic band Monkey Singers that are playing the late bar from 11pm - 1am. There is an exclusive over night rate for this night of electric entertainment for only €25 pps in twin or double room and €20 pps in triple or quad. To avail of these rates, please ring 051 381414 and quote Mr. Pussy - hurry though, space is limited and on 1st come 1st served basis
