“Christeene conveys this sort of slutty, backwoods persona,” says FilmCenter programming director Keith Garcia. “She’s a little mysterious in her intention, leaving to question where she fits in with drag.”
That veil of filthy secrecy will only be furthered by Christeene’s performance of dubstep- and hip-hop-influenced songs like “African Mayonnaise” and “Bustin’ Brown,” from her new album, Waste Up, Kneez Down.
Tonight’s edition of the Watching Hour also features a live performance by DJ JJ Booya and a Q&A with Christeene’s videographer, PJ Raval. The event begins at 10 p.m. at the FilmCenter, 2510 East Colfax Avenue; get tickets, $10 to $12, and information at 303-595-3456 and www.denverfilm.org.
