In a groundbreaking move for both the popular sci-fi show Doctor Who and the drag community, RuPaul's Drag Race star Jinkx Monsoon has made an exceptional entrance into the series as the menacing antagonist Maestro.

The latest episode, ‘The Devil’s Chord,’ presents a riveting plot where The Doctor and his companion Ruby Sunday find themselves entangled in a music-related mystery involving The Beatles, with Monsoon’s Maestro at the center stage.

Monsoon has long been an advocate for more opportunities for drag performers in mainstream media, making her appearance on Doctor Who a significant step forward in the representation of the LGBTQ+ community in entertainment.

Transitioning from her onstage success in productions like Little Shop of Horrors to a major television series like Doctor Who marks a pivotal moment not only in Monsoon’s career but also in the wider acceptance of diverse performers in lead roles.

Speaking about her role as Maestro, Monsoon expressed her excitement in taking on such a powerful and multifaceted character, bridging the gap between the world of drag and mainstream television.
