Queenz Battle of the Divas is a two part show where five drag artists “battle” using songs and physical performance to win over the audience and win the crown at the end of the show.
There is an opportunity for the audience to be part of the night with purchasing ringside seats, where you can interact during the show by using your phone to vote for which Queenz you would like to win and take home the crown. Potentially, every performance will have a different outcome.
Get yourself ready for an excellent production using music from a range of famous Divas from Celine Dion, Brittany Spears, The Spice Girls, and Whitney Houston, to name but a few who feature during the show.
Each of the Queenz has their own particular “look” and style, and for most of the show, I was mesmerised by the colours and style of Billie Eyelash (Craig Coley) who moves during certain numbers were outstanding.
The other Queenz are Bella Du Ball (Grant Jackson), Candy Caned (Harvey Rowland), Dior Montay (Keith Bradley-Marshall), and Zeze Van Cartier (Danny Allan Kelly). Dior Montay delivers an incredible solo performance as Prince in Act Two.
A special mention has to go to Jase performed Stephen Lennox who is the Divas stagehand and organiser, who is very proud of their tour lanyard. Jase is hoping that one day, a position to become a queen becomes available, although it doesn’t look hopeful.
The show is slick and fast-moving in both acts. However, the first act didn’t appear as polished as act two. Which was faultless. The “couples” game show section in act two was extremely funny. Especially when they were both dressed up as Divas. However, although there is some audience participation, it only takes place with the audience members agreeing beforehand.
Please check out the link below to see where the Queenz are performing next. I highly recommend catching one of their shows if you get the opportunity.
Four and a half Stars.
