It's a King Thing

Step into a sparkling night of queer expression and bold performance at Arthur Arthouse, where drag kings take centre stage to redefine charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent — with a twist of cheeky charm and fearless artistry.

Hosted as part of Adelaide’s beloved Feast Festival, this one-night-only soirée invites you to witness powerhouse performances by Bruno Salsicce and Pip Stachio — artists known for pushing boundaries and turning gender norms upside down with wit and wonder. Whether you’re a seasoned fan or new to the scene, there’s magic in the air for everyone.

Feeling inspired? Jump on the open stage and showcase your own flair — no experience needed, just courage and a dash of glitter. Between acts, groove to the infectious beats spun by DJ Scott Balls, whose sets blend house, pop, and soul to keep the energy soaring from start to finish.

Designed for mature audiences (18+), this evening celebrates identity, creativity, and community in all its gloriously messy, magnificent forms. Expect big moves, big laughs, and moments that might just leave you speechless — in the best way possible.

Access is standing only, so wear comfy shoes and bring your whole self. Content includes strong language and artistic nudity — handled with intention and respect as part of the performance narrative.

Whether you're here to cheer, to create, or just to be seen, this is a night where everyone belongs. Let your crown shine — or let someone else’s glitter rub off on you. It’s not just a show — it’s a celebration of being exactly who you are.
