Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration is seeking to revoke the Orlando Philharmonic Plaza Foundation's liquor license after hosting a holiday-themed drag event, which children were allowed to attend.
on Friday, alleging the foundation broke Florida statutes "for a person to commit lewd or lascivious exhibition 'in the presence of a victim who is less than 16 years of age.'"
The event, called "A Drag Queen Christmas," was held on Dec. 28, 2022, per the complaint, which was obtained by the Florida-based news outlet The Floridian. "Rather than call attention to the show's sexually explicit content or acknowledge that it might not be appropriate for children, respondent's promotional materials unequivocally stated 'all ages welcome,'" the complaint said.
Axios was unable to reach a representative for the Orlando Philharmonic Plaza Foundation for comment.
