The SOLD OUT every year smash hit from The Court Jesters returns once again with none other than muthaf*ckin’ Spankie Jackzon in house.
One night a year our queer artists emerge from their closets/cocoons/coffins to dominate The Court Theatre stage, and celebrate Christchurch Pride. Scenes, songs and celebrations from the improv legends for tops, bottoms, twinks and bull dykes, leather daddies, femmes, enby friends, and the whole damn rainbow.
The 80 minutes of improv known for its unexpected, unplanned and unscripted anarchy will be ramped up even further when Spankie Jackzon joins the Jesters for this one-off show.
