Perfectly styled Hair, Glitz and Glamor with a Classic Drag estetic with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. This is what you get when you see Tula hosting one of her regular cabaret shows in the District. A former title holder and member of the Academy of Washington, DC she brings a plethora of stage experience to any show. When friends are asked, they describe her drag more as illusionist work because when she takes the stage, she truly does embody the spirit of the artists she performs too. By day, she is an esthetician and hair stylist for a number of local theatre and event companies. In the evenings and on weekends, when she is not gracing the stage performing, you can often catch her out and about, around town at a nonprofit function, an embassy event, or taking in a theatre production, in full drag, immaculately put together, mixing and mingling with the other socialites from our Nation's Capital.
