Drag Race Holland stars My Little Puny and Keta Minaj present a unique performance that goes far beyond the show: this is drag as expression, resistance and sometimes pure survival.
We celebrate drag as an art form, but also reveal the vulnerability behind it. For many performers, drag is a way to find strength and be heard in a world that doesn’t easily make space for them.
Showgirls Don’t Cry is a tribute to queerness, pride, and chosen family. A performance that needs to be seen, especially now.
We take you backstage, beyond the glitter, behind the make-up, and let you feel what it means to exist outside the norm.
What does everyone long for? Visibility, acceptance, and the freedom to love.
Let love be the solution… and maybe, just maybe, we’ll meet somewhere over the rainbow.
Biography
Boris Schreurs and Bobby Snijder have been an artistic duo in theatre and performance since graduating from the Performing Art School in Amsterdam in 2006.
They performed in major musicals such as Grease, Tarzan, Fame, and La Cage aux Folles, and created visually bold and original work with their own theatre collective Blush.
In 2021, their shared passion for performance, pop culture, and gender expression evolved into a new chapter: as drag artists My Little Puny and Keta Minaj, they reached the finale of Drag Race Holland Season 2. Since then, they’ve performed across the Netherlands and internationally, from Amsterdam to London and Los Angeles…
Their mission: to bring drag to the theatre as an expressive art form and deeply personal storytelling. Their work blurs the lines between spectacle and vulnerability, club and stage, identity and transformation. With their latest show, Showgirls Don’t Cry, they return to the theatre armed with heels, makeup, and stories that demand to be seen and heard.
