Alt-drag superstar Jonny Woo glides into Hackney Empire for a spectacular Un-Royal Variety show featuring the cream of London’s alternative cabaret scene, plus some very special international stars. An anarchic, queer take on the annual Royal Variety Show, this one-off spectacular sees Woo collaborate with guests including operatic drag icon Le Gateau Chocolat, award-winning musical weirdos Bourgeois & Maurice and Jerry Springer The Opera composer Richard Thomas for a 21st century variety show that’s definitely not fit for Her Majesty’s consumption. Jonny Woo’s Un-Royal Variety follows the sellout success of the legendary Gay Bingo finale in 2013. Dig out your blingiest bling, throw on a crown and come party with the UK’s true royalty. Lineup: - Bourgeois & Maurice - Diane Chorley - Le Gateau Chocolat - Richard Thomas - Myra Dubois - Pete and Bambi Over 18s only. Valid ID required. Venue doors open 45 minutes before the start of the show. Please arrive on time as latecomers may not be admitted.
