Happy New Year

Oh my gosh it's lovely to see you 2024. I hope all of you out there had a fab Christmas and New Year's Eve and got everything you wished for. After a run of five shows between December 27th and the 31st I'm taking off just a couple of days before heading down to London to see friends and family, as well as closing the show at The Freedom Fridge in Kentish Town whilst I'm down there. Always busy.

This year things are already looking pretty nifty with all sorts of events planned. I'm co-hosting fabulous new comedy night, Bring Me To Queers, with Auntie Ginger at both Bar Pop in Manchester and Funnyboyz in Liverpool. I'm also overseeing things at The Three Puns at The Three Tuns in Sheffield every-other Wednesday. And I'm also back from Feb onwards every Sunday at The Bull's Head in Sale with more disco and games. Add to that plenty of Absolutely Dabulous Bingo's, Bop & Bingo's, party nights and - of course - a brand new pair of festival shows it's all go go go!

If you'd like me to come and see you this year do drop me a line and I'll see if I can make it to wherever you are. At the end of the day, I can only do this because you want me to and I love each and every fan, follower or friend who helps me do this!

December's Looking to be Snowed Under!

 Plenty going on...Plenty of places where you'll feel my PRESENTS!

What's on in November

Comedy festivals, a return to Canal Street to compete against people half my age, a new weekly pub quiz and bingo (of course.) I'm now booking for comedy, cabaret, bingo and everything inbetween for 2024 so drop me a message if you'd like some!

October Hallo-Queen!

Oh my merry GOSH guys, it's nice to update you with some fabulous news. Not only am I taking MicroRave to both the Retford and Nottingham Comedy Festivals in the next few weeks but I've also had it confirmed for Leicester next February!

I can also confirm that I am BOOKED and BLESSED for the rest of this year with every Thursday, Friday and Saturday taken all the way to December 29th. I'm still available for any NYE shennanigans should you or anyone else be looking but, as experience is teaching me, should nothing come up in the next few months I'll probably get a panicked message three days before when someone else has overdone the gobbling with their turkey and needs me to parachute in like a less gracious Mary Poppins.

Shows since I last wrote have been going proper lovely. My Thursday night Boozy Bingo residency at Upside Down Bar in Bolton is drawing in the dabbing and the delirious, Bop & Bingo continues to mix Microwaving with butlers bottoms and hoola hooping, my own Absolutely Dabulous nights are doing the numbers and I've performed everywhere from Sheffield to Chester in recent weeks. Big shout out to The Three Huns, who I did a delightful afternoon for recently with Deal or No Deal!

Birthdays and Hen Do's are booking in for 2024 already so that officially makes my diary open for next year. If you want me you know where to find me.

On my back. Asleep. I'm tired just thinking about all this. 

Back from Ed

Oh my gosh, what a month I had at the Edinburgh Fringe. Both shows went wonderfully and I'm now taking MicroRave to New Mills, Birmingham and Nottingham in the coming months - plus a few more places to be confirmed. Keep up with my musings on my socials; shows on the Live Dates page. I'll update this again when I can!

Edinburgh Festival Time!

It's been a right old rollercoaster these past few months. If you want to keep up with the goss make sure you follow me on my socials (Insta, TikTok, Facebook and now even Threads!) I'm off to the Edinburgh Fringe in a week so if you're up there please do come and see 'Angela Bra: MicroRave' (2023 Buxton Fringe Best Comedy Nominee) and 'Annie & Angela's Disco Divorce Party' (Best Musical Comedy, 2022 Morecambe Fringe) - at 7.45pm and 10.15pm, both at The Raging Bull!

MAY I Entertain you!

It's been a busy old time since I last wrote. There's been bingo, brunches, competition finals and being labelled "The Ed Sheeran of Drag" to deal with. Where to start? How about...

..here, where I deal with that last event in the list. At the end of April I was in Blackpool at Garlands with my guitar, a music stand, a folder of songs I'd printed out from the internet and enough quips and one liners to link them together to make for quite a Monday night. The fabulous Aura Sutra was on DJ duties and joined me for some stage chat during the sets. The audience were drunk and appreciative - joing in with plenty of my "Lessons in Pop". Who'd have thought Whole Again would raise the roof like it did. Amazing. I'm back in June. 

Bop & Bingo have been keeping me busy on the weekends with sold out shows in Denton and Burnley (twice!) and Wythenshawe as well as more intimate affairs elsewhere. It was hen do central in Burnley on Eurovision night (they'd clearly chose to, like me, watch the UK's return to dismal form the next day) whilst in Wythenshawe you couldn't move for old school ravers giving it crazy legs on the dancefloor and wild women necking pints. I'm looking forward to returning next month for Wythenshawe Pride!

At the start of May, the venue final for Drag Idol took place at The Brewers to a big audience and some even bigger personalities. Following my Sam Smith parody and an onslaught of comedy crowdwork I revealed my g string (and the other five) for an acoustic take on Dua Lipa but it wasn't enough to swing me the win and I bowed out at the same stage as last year. The curse of Canal Street is broken though. Not only did I return to my venue of choice from 2022 but I'll be back by the water for a third time this year on July 11th when I preview my new Edinburgh show, "MicroRave" at Bar Pop alongside Auntie Ginger performing "I Consent". Get your tickets now from here!

Along with all this there's been a fab brunch with Funnyboyz and several comedy nights in the past few weeks. My comedy sets are now all about running material for my festival shows. Disco Divorce Party is confirmed from Buxton, Morecambe, Carnforth and Edinburgh - whilst MicroRave adds two Manchester dates, Barrow-On-Furness, Ulverston and Nottingham to that list with more to come. The next few months are going to incur excess baggage charges they're that packed...
