ABOUT JUDY: Stonewalled!

“On June 22, 1969 Judy Garland dies at age 47. In the early morning hours of June 28, a community fights back. These two worlds collide in this NEWLY Expanded fictional theatrical production with music.

The play takes place at a tribute show to Judy Garland in a little cabaret bar just down the street from the Stonewall Inn. The action happens as the infamous riots break out...

JUDY: Stonewalled! is a glimpse into what it meant to be gay before ‘Stonewall’ and those critical moments where decisions are made that can change, everything!”

CHARACTERS

EMCEE - Campy and dressed stylistically. He is the biggest Judy Garland fan.

TIKI - Young, irrepressible, dressed flamboyantly and provocatively in drag. She is the voice that isn’t so downtrodden and self-hating. Very kinetic and always moving and using her hands when talking. She should be self-aware in how she presents herself, with an element of self-mocking quality. There should appear to be more going on with her than what we see.
STEVE - Straight looking and acting. He is very much in the closet and it’s not directly revealed that he is homosexual, because he is not the kind of person who would admit that, perhaps not even to himself.
CHRISTOPHER - In his 30s. Thoughtful and intelligent and geeky. He is lonely not just because he’s an awkward gay man, but because he is so serious.
BRAD - A female actor playing a transgendered man. He is confident but puts on bit of a show of being happy, except for occasional revealing moments.
JUDY GARLAND - Impersonator, but giving the impression to the audience that she could be truly Judy on stage.

BONUS - FREE Admission - feel free to make a donation as we pass the hat.

Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens 2017

Murder, disco, glamour and glitz wrapped with a funky original score to create an ecstatic night of fun. Energetic, funny and wildly camp, with sparkling one-liners and excellent, funky music! - THE SCOTSMAN

"The Rocky Horror show for the Millennium" - The Daily Mail

Get your glitter boots on - they may just save your life!

The 2017 production is presented in the Tabu Nightclub, below Jack's Nightclub on Richmond Street in Downtown London. Together with a fabulous cast, you will enter the mysterious domain of Saucy Jack's and be carried away to a musical world full of debauchery, disco and fun.

Rick Kish - CROONER

Each year Rick looks forward to this production and its various incarnations. He’s shared the stage with so many wonderful and talented people from the London and surrounding area over the years. It’s always and adventure and one that he’s so happy people seem to embrace again and again. The Christmas shows have been called by many, “the kickoff for the holiday season”, a person once said as they left the show, “such a feel good two hours, I can’t stop singing. I’m ready for the holidays…”.
