Description

A high-camp, chaotic drag cabaret written and performed by iconic Welsh mother and daughter drag-duo Polly Amorous and Esther Parade. Join Polly and Esther as they navigate chosen family, adolescence and villainous low-fat yogurt-based probiotic gut-health brands – all whilst serving intergenerational c*nt! A celebration of self-expression, a joyfully queer blend of drag, musical theatre and cabaret, and a tale of finding family in unlikely places. 'I'd give this six stars if I was a reviewer!' (Polly Amorous). 'Drag? At Fringe? Groundbreaking!' (Esther Parade).
