HOT THEY SUMMER @ RVT (by The Enby Show)

IT IS 🔥THEIR🔥 SUMMER

Get your swimming cozzies out, drench yourself in factor 50 and prepare to BATHE in the bright non-binary talent appearing at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern this July for The Enby Show: HOT THEY SUMMER! 

Dress up (or down), and prepare for inflatable palm trees, pina coladas and giant sunglasses, plus the usual chaotic, joyful and strange performance art of a camp ol’ Enby Show. Along with DJ Mynxie on the decks after the show keeping that summer breeze a-blowing, we are honoured to have an incredible lineup of non-binary cabaret ROYALTY:  

• Lolo Brow, iconic drag queen nut and lizard lady recognised as being at the forefront of neo burlesque
• Shivani Dave, broadcaster, journalist, award-winning podcaster and comedian
• Lusty Lovelace, multilingual drag creature and eco costume storyteller
• Don One, drag king off the telly. Hilarious multi-talented icon from the midlands!  
• Titan Reigns, sensual, enigmatic, free flowing go go boy with the heart of a warrior and the body to match.
• Carrot, chaotic drag vegetable, singer and host. A bit like if Su Pollard was a twink from the south.   
• plus a newcomer spot to platform fresh enby talent… (keep an eye on our socials @TheEnbyShow 👀) 

and as mentioned, the show will be followed by a HOT summer DJ set of queer and trans CHOONS by Mynxie, who’ll keep us dancing until bedtime!

DRESS CODE: Dress as summery as you feel comfortable! Swimming costumes are more than encouraged. Get those gorgeous non-binary bodies out! RVT has a clothing/bag check if you, for some bizarre reason, don’t wanna travel there in a bikini. Please note: Shoes are essential at all times.

ABOUT THE ENBY SHOW

As recommended by TimeOut London… The Enby Show is a chaotic all-non-binary performance collective bringing together the creme-de-la-thems of cabaret, creating variety shows popping with trans & non-binary finery in solo and group spectaculars. They’ve performed up and down the country on stages big and small; from national Prides to basement bars, from West End stages to karaoke venues, they’ve graced all kinds of spaces with their enby excellence. Expect the unexpected and f*ck the cis-tem.  

“Bodacious and inclusive, brass and yet welcoming…”
