The unofficial, unauthorised drag parody.
About three things we are absolutely positive.
First, Edward was a vampire.
Second, Alice is gay.
And third, we are unconditionally and irrevocably delighted to announce THE TWILIGHT DRAG SHOW - NEW MOON at The Clapham Grand
It's been almost 18 years since the lion fell in love with the lamb, and we fell in love with the captivating work of fiction that is THE TWILIGHT SAGA. Now that Twilight is nearly legal age, we thought it was finally time to hand over the creative rights to the LGBT+ community.
No measure of time with you will be long enough, but let's start with 2 hours and 45 minutes, and make it a non-stop bastardisation of a beloved franchise.
Cabbage the Clown and Fabio Lezonli are both multi award winning alternative drag performers, producers and professional mischief creators. Bringing together London's most talented drag queens, kings and things, they join forces to find out what happens if every character in Twilight is gay, trans or attention seeking.

Doors @ 6.30pm
