Season 9 Drag Racers reunite for a drag-off

You may think you know who won the last season of RuPaul’s Drag Race, but a queen’s work is never done. Putative winner Sasha Velour appears onstage alongside Shea Coulee, Farrah Moan and a host of others (with Trixie as hostess) in the touring show War on the Catwalk. The all-audiences show welcomes your cheers for whomever deserves to be the next supermodel of the world…. But Sasha keeps the cash.
