To Slay or Not to Slay
A Shakesqueered Theater & Drag Competition
3 teams of actors and drag artists.
2 crowned champions.
1 night only!
Looking for drag that knows how to bardy hard? Wishing your Shakespeare was less Titus Andronicus and more Titus Androgynous? Then join us at The Glitterbox Theatre for a one-night-only drag and theater competition! In To Slay or Not to Slay, actors are paired with drag performers to fuse Shakespearean melodrama with campy drag.
Join us and our panel of judges as the teams pour out sonnets and soundbites and choose one winner to rule them all. Heavy is the head that wears the crown... or wig.
Presented by Sara Bellum, Oddriana, & the Underlings Theatre Co.

What to Expect:
Enter the Globe
Come in, find your seats, and buy your treats and drinks from Glitterbox’s concession stand.
Round 1: Deathdrop will have his day
In this round, our actor and our drag artist perform a lip-sync of their choice together.
Round 2: All the world’s a stage
Here, we put our drag performers to the test as the teams perform some Shakespeare scenes.
Round 3: All’s well that ends well
This is where we encourage our Barts to play! Finding ways to infuse a little Shakespeare with a little drag (or a lot of both!).
Special Guest
Shhhhhh! This secret is ours to keep. But while our judges deliberate, the stage lights up once more for a final show.
The Crowning
Join us and our judges in the glorious celebration of our winning team! Take photos with your favorite bards, finish your drinks, and whether we shall meet again I know not. Therefore our everlasting farewell take: For ever, and for ever, farewell, [trustees]! If we do meet again, why, we shall smile; If not, why then, this parting was well made.
