‘Scotland's New Kings On The Block' is the jewel in the crown of the KINGcubator program made possible with support from The National Lottery through Creative Scotland’s Open Fund.
What folx had to say about last year's sold out showcase:
"The most uplifting, creative, enjoyable and diverse experience! More please, it was powerfully positive"
“This was, hands down, one of the best drag shows I've ever been to!”
“I cannot overstate the importance of real, gender and body diverse drag to the queer community in Scotland and indeed everywhere. This is proper grassroots queer art and it's magic”
“By far the best night of drag and comedy I’ve seen in a long time!”
“New Kings On The Block was heart warming, empowering and full of laughs.”
