THISISPOPBABY | IRELAND
Australian Premiere

 

This acclaimed Irish variety show melds high art and trash culture in a disorderly cocktail of partying and politics. With an all-star cast including famed drag queen Panti Bliss, RIOT is a dazzling blend of dance, drag, circus, comedy and powerful spoken word.

Both a dissection and celebration of the current state of the world, RIOT mixes the magic of theatre with the energy of the dance floor to deliver a show that’s thrilling, uplifting and utterly unique. It’s your big night out – with a delicious twist!

★★★★★ "Gorgeous, with glitter on top" The Daily Mail

★★★★★ "An unadulterated celebration of skill, passion and possibility" The Reviews Hub

★‎★‎★‎★ "Folds social consciousness into entertainments both flashy and trashy" The Irish Times

Licensed venue: Under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

This performance contains nudity, sexual references, coarse language and haze.
