What is the final fling before the ring, and how is it rooted in dated gender roles and marriage traditions? After riling up audiences in Sydney, musical cabaret All the King's Hens is coming to Melbourne for Midsumma – and it’s stuffed with original live music and packing a daring drag spectacle. Drag kings Big Rod, Papi Chulo and King Chad Love from Sydney squad The Kings will bring your queer Magic Mike fantasy to life.
The art of drag queens may have well and truly penetrated the mainstream, but this entirely different kind of drag royalty will win you over with their disarming charm, quick wit and parodies of masculinity and femininity.
All the King’s Hens comes to Comedy Republic on Thursday, April 29. Grab tickets for $25 over here.
