Beyond Love's Outer Limits

Interview: Disasterina Dragkwene & Ave Rose


Listen Later

Disasterina--"LA's most Disasterous Dragkwene"--and Ave Rose--artist, writer, designer, singer, and performer extraordinaire--share a bit of their lives, love, activism, and art with us in this interview recorded Oct. 5, 2020. Disasterina is known to fans as a "final five" star of Dragula Season 2, with a cameo in Season 3. In addition to alternative drag, Disasterina is a musician, writer, visual artist, and probably "all kinds of other things" as we like to say here on Love's Outer Limits. 

We enjoyed conversing with this multi-talented duo as their disembodied voices reached us from their bedroom in Culver City.

Disasterina and Ave's most spectacular co-creation to date is SadoPsychiatrist, a witty and wacky horror comedy show found on Amazon Prime. Disasterina plays Dr. Sado, a thrill-killing therapist with more than an axe to grind. Ave Rose plays a variety of roles, including her dueling drag king persona, Sleazy Mancini. SadoPsychiatrist also features several other Dragula stars, including Biqtch Puddin', Foxie Adjuia, Felony Dodger, Abhora, Xochi Mochi, and Meatball. 

You can find Disasterina and Ave Rose on YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. (Check out the Cybernetic Circus with Disasterina as a whip-smart Ringmistress!). And don't miss their Oct. 28th and 29th appearances, showing demon sculptures and reading demon stories, at The Satanic Estate virtual openhouse [Oct.9th-31st] on TSTVHQ.com (daily tickets, a monthly pass, and gala Halloween tickets available here).

Love's Outer Limits was deeply honored and pleased to have this time with Disasterina and Ave and we look forward to more!
