It¡¯s April 22, the first day of Tokyo Rainbow Pride (TRP), and I feel like Zsa Zsa Gabor as I pull up to Yoyogi Park in a taxi cab (no train for this queen!) in full drag. It¡¯s already 3 p.m. I woke up late and it takes me around three hours to get in costume as my drag alter ego, Le Horla.
I¡¯m in a bit of a rush to get to Pride, specifically to catch a friend¡¯s performance on the main stage. Stepping out of the cab, I look left; I look right.
¡°Ah! There¡¯s Matt!¡±
