Carmen Sutra is one of Liverpool’s most profiled drag queens.
The performer, who prides herself on being an “intersection of dad jokes and complete utter chaos”, can be found in a host of LGBTQ+ venues around the city and whether she is hosting, DJing, lip syncing or “causing murder” with the audience, guests are sure to be entertained. However, just over four years ago, the 25-year-old, whose real name is Adam Bennett, could have only dreamed of being a successful drag queen full time.
The former drama student, who lives in the Baltic Triangle, told the ECHO : “I started drag as a hobby nearly four years ago and only started taking it seriously in around 2018/19. It happened after I went to a drag night at my university and I enjoyed it so much that I went to the next one in drag. After the buzz I got from that evening, I decided to continue pursuing it to the point that it's now my full-time job.
