The Time Out New York Lounge, in association with New World Stages, will present the second season of the highly popular SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DRAG! This sassy elimination competition on Wednesday nights features themed performances, ruthlessly scrutinized by a rotating panel of celebrity judges, at the Time Out New York Lounge at New World Stages, 340 West 50th Street (between Eighth & Ninth Avenues).

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DRAG! Begins Wednesday September 14th and continues through the Gala Grand Finale on Wednesday October 26th. The Grand Prize winner gets her own show in the Time Out New York Lounge, along with $500 cash, a professional photo shoot from acclaimed visual artist Alexander D'Or (www.yeuxdor.com), and more!

"Showbiz spitfire" Paige Turner returns as host. Hailed as the Elle Woods of drag, with a little retro flair and a whole lot of show-stopping theatrics, she is everybody's girl, not to mention the ultimate Barbie! She hosted the well-received Glitz Crackers in midtown for over a year, showcasing Broadway's hottest newcomers. Next Magazine said of The Paige Turner Show "this showbiz spitfire is not to be missed and continues to amaze;" The New York Times said "The heavily massacred Paige Turner gets everyone to sing along;" and Michael Musto of The Village Voice declared "Paige Turner is the new Holly Golightly!" Her hosting skills have landed her with Logo, the Gramercy Club, Gotham Comedy Club, The Trevor Project, Rite-Aid , Microsoft, and Fire Island and more! She currently has long running shows at Vlada and the legendary Stonewall Inn and is a regular host at Splash. Paige is available for weddings, bar mitzvahs and private parties. Look for her in a city or food court near you! For more, visit her at www.paigeturnernyc.com

Audience votes determine the fiercest queen of them all! Celebrity guest performers and judges will be announced shortly.
