FOR FABULOUS, FESTIVE EXTRAVAGANZA
Deck yourself with boughs of holly, tinsel, glitter and anything else that sparkles and settle in for a warm winter’s night, Orb Events is delighted to present the first ever Camp as Christmas festive variety event on Sat 17 December at newly opened Liverpool venue The Dome, Renshaw Street, Liverpool.
This exciting festive variety show is the first fundraiser for Liverpool Pride 2012. The event will be the first of many that are planned as part of the festivals 20102 fundraising campaign, designed with the aim to keep the festival free for all to enjoy. More details of Liverpool Pride 2012 and its fundraising campaign will be announced in due course.
With more glitter in its wand than fairy godmother could ever imagine, this camptabulous Christmas spectacular will feature amazing live performances, stalls, games and all the XMAS Factor you can handle.
Santa has come early and left a sack filled to the brim with a winter wonder lusting line up of entertainment wrapped up in a big shiny bow for the audience to enjoy. The X-Factor’s, Diva Fever top the (Christmas) list, which also includes Liverpool’s own Adam Lyons and AJ Dance in addition to Pride favourites FTW, Judy and Liza’s Emma Dears, and all girl A-Cappella group Barbie Shop as well as Kaz and Britney, who will perform special excerpts from their brand new production ‘Scottie Road The Musical.’ The audience will also have the opportunity to see Liverpool’s Drag Queens as they’ve never seen them before as well as witnessing a few surprise acts on the night.
The hosts for the evening will be the uniquely fabulous and multi-talented Rikki Beadle Blair (Liverpool Vogue Balls & C4’s Metrosexuality) whose impressive portfolio of work ranges from acting and writing to aerobics instructing, and the one and only Ms Dorreen Kumkwik who promise to keep the jokes flowing, the acts rollin’ and the audience wanting more.
The audience is invited to mix n mingle before the show with a complementary cocktail and banter with pre-show hosts and ‘usherettes’ for the evening Kandi Kane, Charlene O’Neil and Disney Dixon who will get the audience into the festive spirit, with songs from Liverpool’s LGBT choir and VJing from Sandi Hughes, who will also show her projections 'Gayzin Roots n Queerwings', in honour of the people who have created a sense of specialness in Liverpool's gay community. There will also be a number of stalls, games, food and drink to enjoy. The bars will also remain open after the show, when the stage will become a dance floor, complete with DJ, for the audience to stay and soak up the atmosphere or dance the night away, Camp as Christmas style.
If that wasn’t enough, once the party at The Dome is over, hop on your magic carpet, bean stalk, pumpkin carriage or any other pantomime method of transport you can find and get yourself over to the Stanley Quarter to dance the night away in all of the bars and clubs you know and love.
What better excuse to don your most fabulously festive attire and get into the seasons spirit?! Grab your mates, dates, family and colleagues and come on over to Liverpool’s most exciting festive night to share in the merriment of the most jolly season of all! Who knows, you may even pull a cracker or two!
Debbie Boyd, Director at Orb Events and organiser of Camp as Christmas said “I’m so excited to present Camp as Christmas as the first Liverpool Pride fundraiser of 2012 and we hope that it will raise lots of money to go towards this year’s festival. Camp as Christmas is going to be an amazing and fun event for everyone to enjoy and the plan is to make it an annual occasion, the perfect alternative Christmas night out for grownups to enjoy together.”
Auntie Marlene, recent winner of ‘Drag Queen of the Year’ at the Seen Magazine Awards said: “This show is definitely something that Liverpool’s LGBT community needs. It’s going to be a delightful, funny and very entertaining evening and I can’t wait to be in it. This show is not to be missed."
