How the name came about


How the name came about:

My name is Myra and I run The Drama Queen's Drawers which started in business in October 2006, as the people around me were getting involved in pantomimes and Christmas variety shows. I had been a part of an amateur drama society for many years and wanted to make a business that catered for those thespians who wanted to find special little presents for their fellow performers.
The double entendre in the name amused me, and reminded me of the kind of humour that was rife in the pantomime circuit . It evoked the way I had collected little gifts and mementoes over the years, and now needed a whole chest to house all my souvenirs.
I was also inspired to design some signature pieces; little chests of drawers that could hold small trinkets.
Since then I have collected together a selection of gifts and greetings cards specifically for those interested in the performing arts, which continues to grow as I find new and unusual products to offer and I would like to welcome you along to visit the website and see for yourself.
