BEVERLY, Mass. — Brian O’Connor's days are like any other typical nine-to-fiver. He wakes at 6 a.m., has his breakfast and coffee, feeds his dog Dixie, says goodbye to his spouse and goes to work at a rehab facility, where he has been a nursing assistant for more than a decade.

But by night, O’Connor, 36, takes on a different role, that of drag queen Kristi Kreamm, who takes her name from the sugar-coma-inducing Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
