My friend The Drag Queen: Episode 1

In this mini-series, we follow the personal journey of Daniel, a gay man who left the vibrant life of the big city behind for the quieter, close-knit community of Bornholm, where standing out makes you truly noticeable. Embracing his identity and passion by becoming “Damen”, Bornholm’s first drag queen.
Through moments of self-discovery, courage, and connection, this series explores what it means to be authentic in a place where fitting in can feel like the safer choice. With a focus on individuality, inclusivity, and the value of following your heart.
In the first episode, we meet Daniel as he reflects on the origins of his drag persona, and the inspirations from real-life people that shaped his drag persona.
He shares stories about his Eurovision tattoos and what life was like before moving from Copenhagen to the peaceful island of Bornholm. We also explore what motivated this life-changing move and how support from his students at the local theater, where he volunteers, has encouraged him to unfold with his passion for drag.
Follow along as we visit local thrift stores to find quirky prizes for his drag bingo events, dresses, and wigs. He opens up about the personal challenges of becoming a drag queen, navigating body image concerns, and learning to do drag in his own unique way.
This episode offers an honest and down-to-earth glimpse into the journey of self-expression and the courage it takes to embrace your true self.
