Well, Betty sure has been busy! She's cleaned every room in the house twice, listened to every true-crime podcast ever recorded, and has gone through at least 8.4 boxes of wine. What's a drag queen to do when she can't go outside or accost strangers for tips? Watch all of her favorite movies and explore some new ones!
Betty has an odd taste in film for sure - she loves raunchy pre-code classics, film noir, and old MGM musicals. She also has a dark side - she binge-watches crime documentaries and all that Mother Nature has blessed us with. Here are a few of her favorite (mostly free!) adventures she's been on while staying inside and dragging her butt on the carpet to keep busy.

In response to Governor Hogan’s recent stay-at-home directive for Maryland, the Sidewalk Serenades with ellen cherry & Andrew Grimm will be postponed. If you are a ticket holder we will be in touch soon with options. Thank you for your continued support of Creative Alliance!
Creative Alliance believes that a Baltimore without live performances is a Baltimore without joy – and we won’t stand for that!
As you likely know, working musicians, dancers, magicians, burlesque performers, aerialists, and other performance-based artists have had their gigs and their livelihoods cancelled for the foreseeable future. Join Creative Alliance in creating performance opportunities for these artists throughout Baltimore while simultaneously respecting the need for everyone to keep a safe distance.
