Running from Thursday 21 to Saturday 23 September, Margaret Thatcher Queen of Soho will see The Iron Lady return in her smash hit drag extravaganza!

Returning to Tobacco Factory on Wednesday 27 and Thursday 28 September is Women Who Gave No F*cks. Complete with glittering prizes, a human clap-o-meter and total power to decide the Supreme Giver of Absolutely None? Brace yourselves for no-holds-barred tales to make you want to rip up the rule book and riot!

 

Secure your tickets for this celebratory, inspiring night (aimed equally at men and women) here.
