Seven Days

Seven Days: The RVT, Above the Stag, Halfway, Ku Bar and more

Virgin at The RVT

Sunday is the holy day and we can often be found in a position of prayer at the shrine we call the Royal Vauxhall Tavern. This Sunday (30 Sep) the actual mother of Christ will be shining her light and making us repent with laughter as the glorious Virgin Xtravaganzah takes to the stage at Sunday Social. You also get divine music from the trinity of Simon Le Vans, Liam Chaplin and Sean Sirrs.

Food and love at Above The Stag

If you are heading to Above The Stag Theatre in Vauxhall to see the marvellous Maurice – and you really should – or either of the plays in the Studio space then you’ll be thrilled to know that you can now get delicious food before and after shows. The food is being provided by Bear Chefs and we can confirm it’s really impressive fare. Get tickets and information at abovethestag.com

Cabaret at the City of Quebec 

There’s loads of fun stuff on offer at the City of Quebec at the end of Oxford Street all week and this Sunday (30 Sep) at 9pm they have cabaret from everyone’s favourite West Country girl, Stephanie Von Clitz.

Sunday Roast at the Load of Hay

The Load of Hay is the mega popular pub in Watford that has been serving the LGBT+ community for many years with cabaret and much more. One of the things we love the most are their totally yummy Sunday lunches from midday with prices starting at just £9.95, and you can book on 01923 441113.
