"People who say such things clearly don't have an understanding of drag culture, which is sad because drag is ingrained within Australian culture - think of Priscilla and Dame Edna!
The drag queen carollers will take to the Chapel Street precinct every Saturday and Sunday between 1 and 5pm, until December 24.
