The Back Door | Bloomington, IN

The Back Door is the only queer space within a 50-mile radius of Bloomington, IN. These are the stories of the humans that run The Back Door and the humans that have called The Back Door home. Nicci and Smoove founded The Back Door together in 2013, after meeting at a mutual friend's memorial in Bloomington. Verna Vendetta and Corvin Rose both got their starts as drag kings at The Back Door, but they no longer perform there as much as they used to.
