Vancouver Fringe Festival features Clown-Drag-Karaoke Extravaganza
Big Queer Filipino Karaoke Night! looks into Filipino-Canadian shenanigans, queer insights, family epiphanies and soul-gratifying karaoke. The show’s writer/performer Davey Calderon’s visit to his family’s homeland, the Philippines, inspired the show. Katie Sly teamed up with the all-LGBTQ creative team to bring this play to the Vancouver Fringe Festival.
The lead artists of Big Queer Filipino Karaoke Night! include Director Chris Lam. The creative team also includes Costume Design by Vancouver’s long-time drag artist darling Rose Butch.
As part of the Site-Specific series, this play takes place at XYYVR, one of Vancouver’s queer bars and a staple of Vancouver’s queer community. The bar will be available to patrons during the show. The patrons should expect to be invited onstage to sing.
The play runs from Sept. 7 – 16 at XYYVR located at 1216 Bute Street.
