Cherry Valentine: Gypsy Queen and Proud

"We are who we are. Cherry sets about uniting her queer, drag and gypsy identities."

At 18, George Ward left the Gypsy community. He had felt rejected having come out as gay. Leaving his Gypsy identity behind, he invented Cherry Valentine, a drag alter-ego. Now he wants to find out if he can be accepted as a queer Gypsy and feel proud.
