What’s more exciting than a man with a mullet in a dress? From the bogan pits of the Hunter Valley to the glitz and glam of Melbourne, Lachlan Bartlett and special guest Iva Rosebud deliciously dissect the life of a tradie by day, drag queen by night. Critics proclaim, “It is as if Noel Coward himself, arose from the dead.”

Featuring crooner tunes that schmack of all things love, sex and booze including Marvellous Party (Noel Coward), Champagne Taste (Eartha Kitt), Windmills of your Mind (Dusty Springfield) and many more of your favourites. With legendary Jovial Jo Abbot (Robot Song, Death by Soprano) on keys, and the Saucy Sarah Su (Dance ON, Surface Tensions) on drums and guitar, this will truly be a marvellous party you won’t forget!
