Tokyo drag icon and sister of three years Labianna enters Chi Chiの家 on the seventh floor of somewhere in Shinjuku to discuss the CITY OF TOKYO and the 1969 gay boy classic FUNERAL PARADE OF ROSES 薔薇の葬列. Together they stab themselves with the overwhelming beauty of life in a metropolis (so many people on the TRAINS!), terror on the cruising grounds, the perfect female form, uncertainty in your ability to get a gig, they threaten suicide at the edge of your glistening youth and at the unending wall of gay men on dating apps, thrusting a knife into your eye because there are too many straight men at the bar you will never be able to touch…
