"4 out of 5 stars! Wonderfully mysterious! Chaotic! Eccentric! ...showcases an alternative view of drag as a performance medium that many people may have forgotten about due to the rise in popularity of shows such as Drag Race, which was very exciting!" - Rhysreviews
"A brilliant soundtrack. So fascinating to watch. The Duchess offers a nihilistic vision, but looks to a better future - long may she reign. 4 out of 5 stars." - thereviewshub
