RVT

07/08/2015: Last Friday night the RVT welcomed back Edinburgh Fringe festival darlings and alternative four-piece drag troupe The LipSinkers.

I spat out my double vodka and orange when they careened onstage, presenting a visual overload of leopard print, sequins, and more glitter than Shirley Bassey.

DJ Squeaky blasted Pull Up To My Bumper as I elbowed my way through the mixed crowd, some of which were LipSinker fans in official merchandise tees. They Macarenaed to the Black Eyes Peas, there was a show stopping solo of Je-Je-Jesse J’s Price Tag, a collective gasp during Nothing Compares To You where the ‘pope’ simulated sex with a dwarf who then gave birth to a statue of Jesus.

Stripteases, choreography, strategically placed inflatables, and a torch-lit performance of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. What more could you want? You can catch The LipSinkers on the first Friday of the month at RVT. And if they ever need a new member I do a mean Mariah lip sync!
