This picture was taken sometime after the event when people were free dancing to music and cleaning up. A lot of people left, which is why the room is so empty. The picture is of the professional drag performer who hosted our bingo event and one of the salsa club guys who performed in one of the amateur drag acts between bingo rounds. I don't know what it is about this picture (I think he's teaching her how to salsa?) but it's really beautifully shot.
ETA0: Here is a video of the salsa club performing at the drag show. At first we were like....because the men just had sashes and danced the female parts, but they were really good, and we loved the subtle role reversal. The dude in the above photo is the really good dancer in the centre of the dancing line. The drag host gave him a dollar.

ETA1: I didn't know that that the drag queen who had hosted was a UVa student! I thought she was just someone they kept in contact with and invited for drag bingo events! Full article at the
