Come to our LAST SHOW OF THE YEAR on 8th December! Plus we celebrate 20 shows!
Expect queermas shenanigans, musical acts, burlesque, radical drag… all in a gorgeous wheelchair-accessible venue!
Plus an after-party with DJ TRYB to keep you dancing all the way to 1am!
Hosted by London's favourite himbo Prinx Silver, with a jaw-dropping line up:
- Beau Jangles – vintage-style drag king-about-town who The Guardian has called ‘a compelling host’.
- Valentín – soft Latinx boi and the suavest of kings. First runner up in this year's Man UP!
- Valkyrie Cain – Disabled and Non Binary Pro Domme on a mission to show that freaks, queers and broke things alike can be sexy, sensual and powerful!
- Macho Mei – an idol school dropout turned muscle-for-hire by day, camboy by night. They're taking on our newly formed paid slot for newcomers!
Some feedback from previous guests:
"The attention to detail on accessibility is top notch. Normally I'm accustomed to being challenged and having to advocate for my access needs, so it's a rare thing when that's not the case!"
"My queer battery has been recharged!"
"I left feeling safe, loved and empowered"
