Randy Roy is a drag king, costume designer and performance artist from Naarm, Australia. His particular brand of unhinged whimsy has been featured in such places as Melbourne Fashion Week, the National Gallery of Victoria, and the Galerie Natalie Seroussi in Paris. Randy regularly produces shows that prioritise diversity and inclusion in drag, and champions the rights of queer artists to be their own unbridled, authentic, and often unhinged selves on stage. Randy is especially interested in transformative works, the queering of popular culture, and committing to cheesy dad dance moves.
