CLIENT: EASTSIDE SYDNEY
OUTLET: THE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
Chris Collins loves telling children's stories. But before he can begin he prepares to be bombarded with "lots of questions" from curious kids.
Collins, better known by his drag name Hannah Conda, is one of about a dozen artists who make a full-time living as a drag queen in Sydney.
Conda has been doing story time in costume for kids at childcare centres and libraries for about three years and says she was one of the first drag queens to bring the phenomenon to Sydney. And this weekend during the Oxtravaganza festival in the lead up to Mardi Gras, Conda will attempt to establish a world record for the largest drag queen story-time.
