A Disappointing Drag Show Experience in Key West; Having traveled to drag shows all across the US, our visit to Aqua in Key West on a Saturday evening left us profoundly disappointed. While the host managed to keep the energy up with their entertaining presence, the overall quality of the performances fell short of our expectations.The other performers relied heavily on lip-syncing and delivered lackluster routines that lacked creativity and skill. Instead of showcasing genuine talent, one performer resorted to playing with toys and making crude gestures throughout their act, leaving us unimpressed and disheartened by the lack of professionalism. For a city like Key West, known for its vibrant drag culture, we had anticipated a much higher caliber of entertainment. However, what we experienced felt like a letdown, with performances that failed to capture the essence and artistry of drag. Nevertheless, our disappointment was alleviated somewhat when one of the servers, Tanner, took the stage for karaoke after the show. Tanner's remarkable singing and dancing abilities far surpassed those of the previous performers, leaving us to wonder why such talent was being underutilized as a server rather than being showcased as a headliner. It's evident that there may be underlying politics or barriers preventing individuals like Tanner from taking center stage, which is a shame considering the immense talent they possess. If Aqua could harness the potential of performers like Tanner, it could elevate the quality of its shows and provide a more fulfilling experience for its audience.In conclusion, while Aqua may have some entertaining aspects, particularly with its host, the overall drag show experience fell short of expectations, highlighting the need for improvement and the recognition of untapped talent within the establishment.
