DRAG-OPTICON IS BACK! And we're back with a bang!
That's right, after over a year off due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Alana Duvey and Dharma Geddon are back and it's that time of year where Drag-Opticon gets spooky!
We are bringing the scares to you not once but TWICE! Yes our traditional Halloween Double Feature is here with 2 very different casts spread across 2 very different nights.
Night 1 - Friday 1st October >> www.universe.com/events/drag-opticon-halloween-double-feature-night-1-tickets-B0V9MJ
Night 2 - Saturday 2nd October >> www.universe.com/events/drag-opticon-halloween-double-feature-night-2-tickets-NJ5CG3
Drag-Opticon is a sell-out monthly live drag show taking place on the first Friday of the month featuring the iconic if not dysfunctional power couple, the award winning Alana Duvey and apocalypse queen Dharma Geddon plus friends. With a different lineup of local entertainers every month expect a lip sync extravaganza, gag-worthy live singing and a whole host of other tricks of the trade to slay you to the gods in a stunning theatre style setting.
Drag-Opticon contributes to the conservation of the World's oldest surviving Music Hall, the Britannia Panopticon, Glasgow where the event takes place. This is a seated event and a safe, welcoming space for all with a licensed bar. The venue can get very chilly on cold nights so please wrap up warm.
