About Drag Tales

Books like Where The Wild Things Are, Penguin, Girls, The Hug, and many other classic stories will be read. The focus is to have children see books they know and love being read by gender-diverse fabulous beings that exist all across our society. By using stories they’re familiar with, the whole environment becomes familiar and comfortable.

Expect the unexpected, there might be some singing and if the kids are old enough,  there might also be some games. Kids (as well as the parents, guardians, or carers) will have time to ask questions at the end to help further understand drag queens, gender fluidity, and why we are wearing whatever it is we are wearing!

• Children must be accompanied by a guardian
• Children's details should not be included when buying tickets
• There is a baby-changing toilet and accessible toilets

NOTE: Please keep in mind that space is limited, so make sure to secure your spot early. If you plan to bring a buggy with you, there will be space to store them.
