Can a builder become a drag queen?
Dragging Your Heels is a brand new, musical comedy premiering in London. Ben (Terry Geo) is newly divorced and back in his home town. Feeling like life is closing in on him, he wants to be a stand-up comedian but stage fright always gets in the way. With the help of his best friend and drag queen Tammy Scowls (Dolly Diamond) they show him there could be another way to fulfil his dreams.
This funny and uplifting queer play features songs, swearing and sequins!
Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
