Shut Up & King presents ‘LEGENDS’ – a BSL interpreted drag king showcase

Thursday, July 25th @ 18 Candleriggs | Doors 7:30pm, Show 8:30pm (the show WILL start promptly)

Note: The show is 18+ and contains strong language and sexiness and a healthy dose of satire. Content/Trigger warnings will be given for acts if needed.

Raffle, Tips & Merch: There will be a raffle, tips bucket and a merch stand  – cash and contactless payments accepted.

Accessibility: The venue is wheelchair accessible. The show will include BSL Interpretation provided by Katy Smillie-Wilcox. No strobe lighting will be used. Noise canceling headphones and fidget/stim toys available upon request. The show will run from 8:30pm with one interval and end at 10:30pm.

ACCESS FUND 

From July 1, our access costs are no longer being covered by funding from Creative Scotland. Having a BSL interpreter and Access Angel at this show is only possible with funds raised from raffle ticket sales at our previous shows and we would LOVE to be able to continue to have this level of accessibility at future shows. 

Here are 3 ways you can help us do that:

All money generated from our RAFFLES will continue to go to our Access Fund to exclusively cover accessibility related costs at our events.

For this anniversary show, you have a chance to win some EXTRA SPECIAL RAFFLE PRIZES sponsored by some of our favourite queer businesses and creatives so make sure you don’t miss out!

You can also opt to support our Access Fund by making an ACCESS FUND DONATION when you buy a ticket or if you cannot make the show. 

OR … buy yourself a decorative FAN OF ACCESSIBILITY* at the Merch stand on the night as all revenue from sales of fans goes to the Access Fund, too. 

*these one of a kind Fans Of Accessibility are made by Fife’s most glitter-covered drag king, Jender.
