Event Description

Relish Theatre brings a new drag cabaret play about the climate crisis and its impact on the queer community to VAULT Festival.  From award-winning writer James McDermott (Eastenders; Time and Tide), with musical direction from Olivier-nominated Joe Beighton (SIX: The Musical). Acid’s Reign will debut at VAULT Festival at their new 125 seat cabaret venue The Flair Ground. 

The show will be performed by a star cast of drag artists playing Mother Nature, Sea, Land and Air. Repurposing the story of Dickens’s, A Christmas Carol and recycling camp pop songs as green anthems. Acid’s Reign is a fully sustainable drag-cabaret play exploring the queerness of nature, and how the climate crisis affects minority groups.   

The play follows LGBTQ+ Business tycoon, Alex Acid, who wants to build a gay leisure resort in their rural seaside hometown. However, the damage to the local environment will be disastrous.  They’re ready to tear it down and destroy anything and anyone standing in their way, including Mother Nature. Acid’s siblings (Sea, Land and Air) are waiting backstage to teach them a long-overdue lesson in environmental responsibility.  Will Acid reign? Or will they learn to embrace all that Mother Nature has to offer?  With the help of a little drag magic, Acid’s Reign forms part of Relish Theatre’s Regeneration Season – a trio of new LGBTQIA+ plays.
