Columbia drag club closes as COVID-19 deals blow to economy
When Muffie Beaverhausen walked into Yin Yang Night Club, Columbia’s sole drag show bar, the Saturday before the metropolis recorded its first case of the coronavirus, she knew.
She’d been hearing some mumbles about the disease, she said. People were buying Walmart out of toilet paper, people were scared. But she, like many others, couldn’t visualize it’d be such a big deal - things were going to be fine, she thought.
“Then I walked into the bar on a Saturday evening when there were usually 150 to 200 people in there … and we had 36 people,” Beaverhausen, a Yin Yang DJ and former performative queen, said. “And I went, oh shit, we’re done.”
Manager Jeff Davis got the bar’s staff together the next Tuesday. The metropolis was recommending groups of 50 people or less, he told them. He decided it’d be best to just close until the whole thing blew over. Hopefully it’d be fast, he said.
Two months later, on Wednesday, it hadn’t blown over, and the exclude decided to adjacent its doors for good. On Friday night, the club used a Facebook live broadcast to put on one last show.

By Katie and Sugar
For most people, Columbia is a pit stop on the I-70 trek from St. Louis to Kansas Town. For those lucky enough to live here, there’s so much more to love.
Katie: I moved here 3 years ago to start graduate school at Mizzou, and it didn’t take long for me to feel like heated and fuzzy about Columbia – that’s the Midwestern hospitality. After a petite longer, I’d found so many other reasons to love it here. Because of the university, Columbia has is a liberal bubble in a surrounding sea of red. There are plenty of astounding cultural events happening, and a lot of unusual and wonderful people. Gender non-conforming people and places aren’t hard to find, and the other residents of Columbia largely embrace the LGBTQ community.
COMING OUT Afternoon AT MIZZOU
Sugar: I possess officially lived in Columbia, MO for 5 months now, and it has blown me away. I was born and raised in Arkansas and was proud to live there.
