Rescheduled drag show goes off without a hitch at Illinois bakery that was vandalized

LAKE IN THE HILLS, Ill. — As Corrina Sac set up tables and chairs in UpRising Bakery and Cafe on Sunday morning, she said she was excited to finally be holding the family-friendly drag show that was canceled twice after harassment, vandalism and a zoning issue.

“We’re really grateful for everyone to allow us and support us with these events,” said Sac, the owner of the shop in Chicago suburb of Lake in the Hills.

Sac said she wanted to keep Sunday’s show low-key for her customers and the performers following the negative attention the bakery received for hosting the drag show. “Today, we’re asking for privacy, as well as support, so we can have an incident-free event.”
