Guess who's back in the house!

Drag 101 returns to The Gilchrist Postgraduate Club, Glasgow University on Tuesday 27th May 2025, starting at 7pm and full of draggy fun with our glamorous house queens, Dharma Geddon, Alana Duvey plus a selection of their drag chums.

Be sure to get your ticket(s) by selecting the ticket link above or here: www.glasgowunisrc.org

Featuring more drag shenanigans than you can shake a wig at, for example but not limited to, lip sync performances (a drag staple), live singing, comedy, drama, burlesque, cabaret, games and sometimes the downright unexpected and weird, and not forgetting a wee fun chat or two with all of Dharma and Alana's dated/niche references. All while continuing to break gender norms, experiment with gender and self expression through performance.

What better way to kick off Spring than by coming to Drag 101! So be sure select the 'Going' button on our Facebook event page and keep your eyes peeled there for the amazing guest performer announcement poster coming soon.

As always, Drag 101 is open to all, no matter your age, race, background, gender, sexuality, identity, pronouns, neurotype, abilities, body type, shape, size, hair colour, eye colour etc. you get the idea! You don't even need to be a student or a postgraduate at the university to come and enjoy the show.

We operate a welcoming, accessible, safe and relaxed space for all. The overall vibe of the show is nice and chilled, seated cafe vibes. PLUS you can purchase drinks at the bar and even a cheeky snack or two.

Our only aim is that you'll leave having been thoroughly entertained.
