LK is a dancer, Jen is a clown, but somehow they make it work.
Jen and LK present their brand spanking new doubles trapeze act, "Jinkies!", following the spooky queer love story between Velma and Daphne you didn't know you needed. The sexual tension is palpable and the drops are climactic. But while they're dying to spend some alone time together, they start to wonder; do we have company and will we even make it out alive?
Jen is also bringing us a solo piece.
Have you ever felt like people don't recognise the effort you've put in? When Colin, the over-worked, under-appreciated employee gets home from the office this evening, join him as he takes you on a wildly cathartic journey of how he likes to unwind. A drag hand-balance burlesque that's truly one-of-a-kind.
