milDRED : Actress, Performance-Artist

It’s no surprise that DRED’s motto is “Love all of who you are….” The milDRED Love experience is a poetic, funky, fly, supernatural-high, comedic, thought-provoking and musical performance on gender-fluidity, and freedom of expression. From a gender alchemist named NOTTY DRED to a gender bending diva name DREDICIA, get your spirit tickled!!! To learn more about milDRED visit, www.dredlove.com
