See it if See a drag queen's wild, hectic costume changes in a slapstick mode that is clever & exhausting, bizarre behavior with no story but heart

Don't see it if Garish, colorful outfits put on and off at breakneck speed is off-putting, want a story & dialogue, can't deal with hectic pace, loud music
