Crimson & Queens provides a platform for OU students and other local performers to showcase their art and increase visibility for the local LGBTQIA+ community.

Crimson & Queens is one of OU’s most popular events and has quickly become one of the largest collegiate drag shows in the United States with more than 4,500 people in attendance over the past 7 years.

In addition to community support and local talent, Crimson & Queens features internationally recognized drag queens, all of whom have gained considerable fame from their appearances on the Emmy Award-winning television show RuPaul’s Drag Race.

For the past 6 years, Crimson & Queens has created a long-lasting legacy that will continue to build an affirming and welcoming environment for the campus community.

Crimson & Queens is increasingly essential to our community, and we thank you in advance for your support in making this event a reality.

The Queen is Coming Home

For the first time ever, Crimson & Queens will be held during the University of Oklahoma’s Homecoming week! With a spectacular lineup of performers, this year’s Crimson & Queens is set to be the biggest and most electrifying performance yet.

RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16 Contestant


We are excited to welcome Plasma as the headliner for Crimson & Queens 2024. An alumnus of the University of Oklahoma’s BFA Musical Theatre program, Plasma rose to national fame on RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16, wowing audiences with her polished performances and undeniable charisma.

She released a cover of “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” with an accompanying music video inspired by the movie Funny Girl, which has since gone viral. Her “All That Plazz” live-sung cabaret sold out at the historic McKittrick Hotel in NYC and was the all the buzz in Provincetown, MA.

Having launched her career at the University of Oklahoma, Plasma’s return to the Crimson & Queens stage is a testament to OU’s commitment to cultivating talent and supporting the creative arts.
