Lot of lip-syncing, sequins and laughs will descend on High Street this weekend as Capitol City Cinema hosts its summer drag show and drag brunch.

The queens will be back the next morning for Sunday brunch. Doors open at 11 a.m. with an 11:30 a.m. show. Tickets, which cost $30, include the price of the meal. The menu offers a Colorado breakfast burrito, lil' pigs breakfast bowl, Publeo breakfast bowl or Birra beef lunch burrito provided from La Chica Loca.
