Starring Ru Paul’s Drag Race star Scarlett Harlett, Acid’s Reign (Pleasance Theatre, 5 Feb–1 March) interrogates the climate crisis through a queer lens in a drag cabaret musical. The Climate Queens are ready to fight for their future with the help of a little drag magic, but the hot-headed, cold-hearted Alex Acid has other ideas. Fuelled by desperation, greed and a good dollop of corporate interest, when Acid feels their voice is drowned out, is it easier to just light a fuse and watch the world burn? Acid’s Reign is a new musical queering and querying the climate discourse, exploring the stories we tell about the climate crisis and the compromises we make to tell them. Further casting includes Gigi Zahir (Crayola) who recently opened for Chappell Roan at O2 Academy Brixton, Joshua Oakes-Rogers returning to the London stage after touring as Melman in the UK stage production Madagascar, drag king Jamie Fuxx, and Musical Comedy Awards finalist Ash Weir.
