Lypsinka

Lypsinka (real name: John Epperson) is a New York based drag queen who lip-synchs to meticulously edited show-length soundtracks culled from snippets of outrageous 20th-century female performances in movies and song. Lypsinka has appeared in evening-length solo shows Off-Broadway, including The Boxed Set and As I Lay Lip-Synching. Born in Mississippi. This artist is a frequent performer at Wigstock. Epperson has also peformed an autobiographical solo cabaret show, "Show Trash," out of drag, talking and singing in his own voice.

In Winter 2004, Epperson as Lypsinka played the role of the Wicked Step-Mother in the New York City Opera's revival of Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella in a cast with Eartha Kitt, Dick Van Patten, and fellow Wigstock veteran Renee Taylor.
