A Queer Revue! at Band on the Wall is a quarterly cabaret and clubnight that brings together new and established acts for an anything-goes performance/party.

ON THE DECKS …
Music from DJs Anthony Crank (Off The Hook, Rebel Rebel) and Rod Connolly of the legendary Bollox Club.
IN THE BAR …
Charlie Craggs of Nail Transphobia
Trans activist and nail artist Charlie brings her famous pop-up nail salon to Band on the Wall’s Picturehouse Bar where she will give one-on-one manicures and chat sessions, discussing beauty, activism and trans life.
Tarot-reading with Barnacle Beryl, the old sea Duchess…Back by popular demand!
There were queues all night at the last Queer Revue to experience the mystical powers of tarot mystic, Barnacle Beryl. Cross her palm with silvers and she will unfold your future…
ON THE STAGE…
Zsa Zsa Noir
Manchester drag pioneer, underground pop star, fashion icon. Zsa Zsa brings her fierce self to the Queer Revue stage to show you exactly who’s daddy… and mommy…
Eva Serration
Astounding vocalist and drag shape-shifter, Eva Serration has wowed the crowd at the legendary Cha Cha Boudoir and beyond and now breaks new ground with two performances at A Queer Revue.
Ivy Profemme
Flying the flag for women in drag, Ivy Profemme’s divine persona combines drag and burlesque in one. Performing for over two years, her stage outings have been described as both ‘liberating and captivating’.
And all the way from London…Ray Filar
Ray is a writer, performer and growing star of the London underground. While most drag kings send up the hyper-masc world of str8 bros and dudes, Ray’s stage antics also delve into the world of queer masculinity too. Prepare to be lampooned with love with Ray’s unique satirical style of gender-blending.
