EastEnders: Drag queen Tara Misu revealed as regular character

Apr 2,2022 1:00 pm

EastEnders' first ever drag queen is due to sashay on to Albert Square as a regular character.

Fans have been given at Tara Misu, Played By Matthew Morrison .

Matthew said it was a privilege " to showcase the creative art of drag" to viewers and The Residents of Walford and to " represent the LGBTQIA+ community".

" It's important for people to feel reflected on screen, " he added.

He's joined The Cast in The Role of Felix Baker, the younger son of Mitch Baker 's estranged brother Avery.

'Normalise queer community'

Lucas Young, a drag queen by the name of Ms Classpergers who uses the pronouns she/they, says it's significant for a show as big as Eastenders to be " unapologetically dealing with these issues".

It could have a big impact, Lucas feels, as Growing Up they didn't see much representation on TV.

" If I had that realisation or opportunity from a younger age, I feel like I would have been able to begin creating more. And knowledge is power.

" The only way we can normalise drag and the queer community is to talk about it and make people aware of The People We Are , " the 23-year-old from The East Midlands tells Radio 1 Newsbeat.

Lucas, who gets regular abuse because of a rainbow-dyed hairstyle, says people " are so scared of difference and change".

But " EastEnders, which is a comfort show, can affect change" they say.

Lucas is " excited to see what conversations" The Show will create and whether " people who don't necessarily understand the community" will be more open afterwards.

In a posted to The Show 's Social Media , Matthew said he'd never done drag before.

Lucas's " knee-jerk reaction" to This Was that having a character who is already a seasoned drag queen would be preferable.

" However, if a person can do it without a drag persona, I don't see anything wrong with it, " Lucas adds.

" Drag is an expression of an inner part of ourselves that we normally don't get to show. Let's create more drag queens, and as long as they do a good job I don't see an issue with it. "

To help Matthew perfect his role, Natalie Cassidy , who plays Sonia Fowler , roped in Drag Race UK star Vinegar Strokes to help out.

Some of Vinegar's top tips were:

" Drag is all about The Invisible superhero cloak, " Vinegar says.

" Or stay At Home . We're creating an illusion for The Audience . "

" It's non-negotiable, because we're creating an illusion and balancing everything. "

" What's your favourite film or celebrity? "

" And confidence in The Heels . "
