Southend Adventure Island says Pride 'not for us' over drag act
By Peter WalkerBBC News, Essex
A drag queen has said he is " very disappointed" after a Theme Park said it would refuse to host future Pride events because of his performance.
Crystal, who was a contestant on series one of RuPaul's Drag Race, was On Stage at Adventure Island as part of the annual Southend-on-Sea Pride festival.
The owner said there was " confusion" over what was allowed and future Pride events were " just not for us".
The Entertainer performed at The Venue for the two previous Pride events.
Crystal said: " It is just another example in a long line of corporations using Pride as a means to make some money but as something to be abandoned once it becomes challenging or difficult. "
A video of Crystal's performance on Saturday showed him using an angle grinder against a metal plate fixed to his crotch, making sparks fly.
Crystal said his act was no different to some entertainers seen on Britain's Got Talent, or by pop stars such as Lady Gaga or street artists in London's Covent Garden , but that his performance was only perceived as sexual because he was in drag.
The performer, real name Colin Munro who grew up in Canada, also said he received homophobic abuse twice in Southend that weekend and police intervened when A Man threatened to punch him and his friend on The Beach in The City Last Year .
" If we were having Good Faith conversations about whether or not my act was appropriate for children, then that is something I would be willing to discuss, " he told The Bbc .
The MailOnline by his performance.
'Backfired'Philip Miller MBE, the executive chairman and owner of Stockvale Group of Companies, which includes Adventure Island , said: " We humbly apologise to all of our loyal customers for any offence caused.
" There was confusion Between Us and The Act as to what we would allow or not, as it were.
" The grinding act was most definitely a nonstarter as We Are ostensibly a Family Park and that is just not family entertainment. "
He added: " Rest assured we will not be re-booking this act or participate in any future Pride celebrations.
" It's just not for us. We tried to be inclusive but it has backfired on us. "
Crystal said he had not been contacted by any representative of Adventure Island since The Performance .
