Tickets Here!

Welcome, delicious guests, to an evening designed to titilate and terrify you. Prepare to partake, or be partaken of, in this one Night fright. We bring you premier cannibal pioneers such as Hannibal Lecter, campy ex-killing fun, and enough blood to paint London red. This is a profit sharing event, and be warned, we are more literal than most when we say eat the rich- so bring cash to tip your favourite performers and don’t forget your manners, the rude taste divine in a stew.




☙ Menu ❧

☙ FIRST COURSE ❧

Dionysos Slain

Dionysos Slain is the dismembered corpse of an ancient god, stewed and consumed and resurrected as a monstrous fop and an eternal anachronism. Hailing from Bristol, he makes elaborate and grotesque drag out of scraps of fabric and fragments of poetry.

The Red Dyke

The Red Dyke is honestly just here for the attention. Kooky and slutty and dripping in red - they’ll leave you thinking ‘thank God for Lesbians.’

Sam Moanella

Is your stomach churning or do you just have a case of Sam Moanella? The most infectious thing to hit your intestines since the plague, Sam has been described as horribly gorteuqse … yet still so beautiful. He’ll leave you with butterflies in your stomach and a sour taste in your mouth , just don’t forget to pack an extra pack of tissues when you catch this sickening king

☙ SECOND COURSE ❧

Lust

Welcome to hell sinners, Lust is the Triple SSS ghoul on the scene - Sexy Stupid and Spooky, also referred to as the dancing demon of east london. Lust was created by Satan themself and resides on the street corner where glamour meets horror. Lust is a high energy performer and is here to serve you a good old 666 step and specialises in burlesque as well as turning some sickening looks, sure to make you drop dead. Lust is no stranger to working with the Glory, Dalston Superstore, Bethnal green working mens club, Queen of Hoxton and the RVT, and has most recently Placed Third in Top Of The Slops season 2 as well as competing on NADC Season 3.0.

Taint Sebastian

Evan Gelion

Evan Gelion is a drag clown from the deepest corners of the internet- Whether by dousing himself in horse lube or stripping to anime openings, this prince of pop culture is here to make you cringe, laugh, and most importantly ask “the fuck did I just watch?” Sit back, relax, and let the behaviourisms of this interweb jester titillate and perplex you.

☙ THIRD COURSE ❧

Loose Willis

A drag king with class, experience and a healthy amount of self-loathing, Loose Willis is the rock n’ roll daddy of niche pop culture lipsyncs, comedy and boylesque. He is a creative associate of the Offie-award winning drag king troupe Pecs and regular performer with Fist Club and Slaystation.

Izzy Okay

Izzy Okay is a melancholy chew toy for evil lesbians. This sadboy snacklet is being shipped in all the way from New York City, where he's the Big Apple's poorest little meow meow. A delightful downer, he'll be sure to make you ask yourself, "Is he...... you know....."

Velvet Caveat

With notes of lavender and cunt, Velvet Caveat has been prepared in a sweet confit with a tart praying mantis jus to cut through, perfect for serving. She was bred at SlayStation, the UK’s video game drag show, which looks to be a common occurrence by the state of their toilets. We chose this particular specimen for her elegant build, fierce presence, and the depth of flavours and emotions she presents. Bon appetite! x

Disclaimer: there will be no crumbs left.
