Parkes, 350 km northwest of Sydney, is home to a 64-meter telescope and an annual Elvis Festival, now in its 30th year. Over five days in early January, some 24,000 fans descend on a town normally home to about 14,000. "Once you see them get involved in the music, gender disappears. It's no longer male or female ETA, gender just goes.”
Scharkie has been an Elvis fan since childhood and remembers watching his movies at her grandmother's house. In high school, her deep voice and talent for music often landed her male parts.
