Panto is one artform that does not dial down the camp, glitz and glamour, so a drag panto starring three of the UK’s top drag acts is the perfect fit for a sashaying Sleeping Beauty.
The Core at Corby Cube’s seasonal offering has given us a show with even more added sass starring RuPaul’s Drag Race finalist Divina De Campo, drag legend Lola Lasagne, and drag king Don One.
With the plot virtually irrelevant, everyone’s favourite recipe for a festive night out is catered for – a baddie (boo!), a hero (huzzah!), a heart-of-gold dame, pretty princess in peril and a cheeky joker.
In killer heels with killer lines, Divina De Campo pulls off her role as deliciously evil mean queen Carabosse – an imposing cackling baddie in head-to-toe figure-hugging spandex.
Using her 4-octave vocal range Ms De Campo smashes the songs while teetering on the highest of heels, matching her vocal gymnastics with some equally nimble splits and leg bends.
Trying her best…
