@ Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club
Saturday 29 April 2017
19:30-02:00 (last entry midnight)
£6/8 (adv.) – £8/10 (door)
Dukes and Countesses, Earls and Baronesses, Kings and Queens and all the drag in between (and beyond)… Grab your diamonds and tiaras and come along to ROYAL TRASH for a night of pompous debauchery!
For your exclusive amusement, we unveil our cabinets of curiosities and offer you a spectacle of high class divertissement: expect haute couture fantasies, aristocratic mannerisms and vulgarities, subversive gender-bending telenovelas, exercises in (un)Britishness, beauty pageants and drama queens, voguing sessions, Trans-Coronations and a dethroning of the great white male… With guest of honour ‘UnRoyal Variety’ star Jonny Woo!
Deep Trash is a one night only exhibition-cum-performance-club-night featuring live performances, installations, artworks, visuals and videos spread over 3 floors by over 40 artists in East London’s Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club.

For the Royal Trash episode, the venue will be open from 7:30pm, with a 1 hour curated screening on loop, an exhibition area, interactive installations and performances. We will start the night with sexy and sassy electro/house music beats by Julian Von Petrovosky and end with Vogue ballroom ‘realness’ by Jay Jay Revlon. Dressing up (or dressing off) encouraged!
