Teen in Dudley school drag act ban puts on own talent show

The Not Just a Boy in a Dress programme followed Lewis's"very personal journey", the BBC said

Last year, Castle High School and Visual Arts College in Dudley told Lewis Bailey his act was not permitted, saying it celebrated diversity but felt the performance was not"appropriate".A documentary on him is on the BBC iPlayer and will be broadcast on CBBC. But now his mum says:"In the long run it worked out in his favour as he's had the chance to do other things.Image caption

Speaking in the programme, Lewis said:"Drag is amazing for me. All the negativity just disappears. I'm on that stage in front of people. It makes me feel like I'm wanted in the world.

Why are the BBC so obsessed with young boys (children) dressing up as girls? I find it very disturbing.

I wonder why parodying women has always be so successful? It’s not so in reverse.

I would have thought one if not all the local mosques would have invited the poor boy to perform on their premises. After all, those traditional working men's clubs tend to be full of old intolerant bigots don't they?

I appreciate the irony, but I really think we should stop judging ourselves and forming opinions based on what the bottom half of the internet says.

Drag act might be advanced format. But This is progressive approach. Don't worries.
