GOD IS A SCOTTISH DRAG QUEEN - THEATRE WIRE

6/12/2018

For those looking for something different from the traditional Christmas shows, Theatrewire's presentation of God is a Scottish Drag Queen: A Christmas Special at Studio 1398 is a fun untraditional outing. Mike Delamont returns to Vancouver for 'God' to tell us their version of the origins of Christmas, or perhaps the birth day of Jesus and some of the traditions that follow suit. 

Although not the outlandish drag that I am used to, the humour was well balanced with just a bit of coarse language and a little bit of audience heckling, but all in good fun, with a few visual aids via powerpoint. Like with most comedic presentations that I enjoy it was about laughing at ourselves and the silly things we do or embrace. Which for what can sometimes be a trying time, like Christmas, is much appreciated and often needed.  I felt it was well spent money for about 75-80 minutes of entertainment and look forward to Delamont's return, hopefully it won't be another 4 years.

God is a Scottish Drag Queen: A Christmas Special is playing at Studio 1398 until 7 December 2018. Tickets at: https://tickets.theatrewire.com/shows/god%20is%20a%20scottish%20drag%20queen-%20a%20christmas%20special/events

    ABOUT THEATRE ADDICTS

    Founded by Danielle Benzon, a self-professed theatre addict. 

    Live performance is essential to create human connection in our disconnected world. Theatre is not a dying art form. It is more relevant, more necessary, now than ever before.

    ​
    This is a place for audience members to share thoughts and opinions, to discuss with critical thought what they liked (and didn't) and why.

    At Theatre Addicts we own our subjective viewpoints and we welcome respectful conversation. This is not a place for professional critics, it is a platform for the diverse voices of the audience community to be heard. It is a place for ideas to be exchanged. It is a place to reflect upon different perspectives and opinions that lead to a deeper understanding of art, of others, and of ourselves.

    We believe that an empowered, engaged audience allows for a responsive arts community.
