Fantabulosa!

CREATIVE PRODUCER (ongoing)
Fantabulosa
is an interactive public space drag show for kids, bringing to life queer positive children’s stories through lip-sync, song, games, dance, drag performance.

Showcasing some of the UK’s leading drag queens, kings, and things, Fantabulosa is a fantastical pop-up world of imagination celebrating self-expression and championing difference. Disrupting the narrative of public spaces through drag, storytelling, music, and glitter, Fantabulosa is a space where boundaries are forgotten and everyone and anyone can be whoever they want to be.

Please note that Fantabulousa! finished touring in 2020. 

FANTABULOSA_DRAFT3_LOWRES_WEBFantabulosa! was devised with the company and features original music by Adam Carver and Nick Allen. Listen to ‘Whatever You Dream Of’ below:
