LONDON WISH WE WERE THERE for Miss Hope Springs plus Showtunes Drag Brunch

 

Even though Queerguru’s London Team of 4  give us some excellent coverage of of what is happening in the UK there are still quintessential Brit queer  things we yearn for back here in the US.  Right now for us it’s the sheer diversity of class that still pervades in society and culture,

At one end (the top?) there is the ultra glamorous eternally 39 Miss Hope Springs who suddenly left a Las Vegas Chorus line some years back(!) to head back to the UK to entertain the swell high-society audiences of London’s West End.  Well, in fact in any venue that was packed with its fair share of queens, and would employ her 

The British chat show host Jonathan Ross  summed Miss Hope  Springs up so succinctly with “The greatest star that never was sings the greatest hits that never were…Unmissable!‘”

There has never been a  time when we needed “Hope”  as much as we do right now,  so she will be back at Zeidel revisiting her lost 1971 Granada TV special Christmas Agogo! In this hysterical show. You’ll hear “Santa is a Woman”, “Bagels” and many more festive numbers from what is to this day considered an unaired masterpiece.  Check out this clip .

 

December  11th and 12th 2020

And for something  completely different (!)  we are missing a  fix of the madness at one of our favorite East London queer venues : Dalston Superstore.  The manic  Broadway Baby Ian Street celebrating all things jazz hands in London’s one and only Drag Showtunes Brunch.

They promise games, prizes, requests, special guests, lipsyncs and of course – Fosse necks!

AND I AM TELLING YOU, we’ll be DEFYING GRAVITY, because at Showtunes Brunch ANYTHING GOES! So if you love THE SOUND OF MUSIC, AND ALL THAT JAZZ, LET THE SUNSHINE IN and join this SWEET TRANSVESTITE for some BROADWAY BABY!
You have been warned! .
