The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation’s alcohol division sought Tuesday to revoke the liquor license of the Hyatt Regency Miami over a Christmas drag extravaganza, saying the hotel violated state law by allowing a “sexually explicit show with children present.”centered on a Dec. 27 show at the James L. Knight Center, which is advertised by the hotel as a “directly connected” venue for special events.
The 17-page complaint said the show was recommended for those 18 and older but allowed children accompanied by an adult to attend, even though the content included “perverted versions of popular children’s Christmas songs” such as “Screwdolph the Red-Nippled Reindeer.” The complaint alleged that children who appeared younger than 16 were in attendance during the show, which included performers “wearing sexually suggestive clothing and prosthetic female genitalia” engaged in “simulated sexual activity” and “lewd, vulgar, and indecent acts.”
The hotel “authorized, permitted, and maintained the Show to occur on its Licensed Premises, and, as a direct result of its admissions policies, knowingly exposed minor children to the conduct alleged herein,” the complaint said.The department’s Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco filed a complaint Feb. 3 against the Orlando Philharmonic Plaza Foundation and suspended its liquor license over a Dec. 28 performance, prompting pushback from a Democratic lawmaker.
Good, no one needs drunk groomers near kids.
Good!
Should have been the business license.
Good
Why isn’t it banned altogether ?
Lower the boom! Kid drag shows are really Male drag shows for mothers to chicken to go to 'Male Strip Club'! Kids do not decide to go! Dads would just go to real strip club or hooters without the kids... Kids want 'Chucky Cheese!' but the mouse costume is not reveling enough!
Someone has to do it. Things are getting out of control and very dark. It's hard to fathom that this is even an issue!
Good.
Make Florida dry is a logical next step. Alcohol helps create the drug culture. Prohibition4FL
