Sitting down with the incomparable Miss Richfield 1981 is an annual treat for the QUEERGURU Team. We were there to find out more about Miss Richfield 1981 “40 Years On The Throne” when we could get a word in. She is one of the most hysterically funny and talented performers we have ever had the pleasure of meeting: check out the video BUT do not miss her show at Pilgrim House or her online Bingo Bonanza
It has become something of an annual treat for Queerguru to sit down with the indomitable Miss Richfield 1981 even though she is not averse to aiming a few barbs at us, We went to talk about her brand-new show, “Cancel Cultured Pearls”, which is a guide to surviving our sensitive, new world.

Thisis a warts-and-all brand new documentary from filmmaker Angela Washko about the ups and down of Mrs Davis’s journey seeking brighter lights and bigger stages. What ever happens along the way never seems to dent her irrepressible good spirits even though she may have to reluctantly re-think her path forward.
Mrs Kasha Davis is part ‘old school drag’ who rely on their life’s experiences to hone their acts in front of a live audience over years. These constitute a genre known as drag royalty that include the likes of Lady Bunny,Lypsinka,Coco Peru,Varla Jean Merman,Miss Richfield 1981 and Dina Martina and that Mrs Davis aspires to be a part off

Dressed like a latino Liberace he was one of the most celebrated and beloved figures on Spanish-language television — an extravagant, outrageous, endlessly positive, gender non-conforming who dispensed horoscopes to daily TV audience that reached 150 million viewers at his peak.
One the eve of the launch on Netflix of MUCHO MUCHO an affectionate documentary on Mercado, QUEERGURU talked to the film’s co-director Kareem Tabsch about his fascination with this larger–than-life man,
