The free one-night arts festival
THE DRAG LAB!
Enter this experimental, transitional space to be reborn as you ask, ‘what does drag means to you?’ Working with some of the city’s most subversive queer performers, you are invited to take the gender rule book and rip it up as they take you on a journey of self-discovery. A unique offering from YEP Producers & Mark Powell, The Drag Lab is an exploratory promenade piece taking you through the conception and evolution of the artistry of DRAG. Writing by Mark Powell.
Like drag, this event is totally inclusive and open to audiences of all genders. 12+.
Tickets are free but should be booked in advance:

On LightNight, Liverpool springs to life for a Friday night out like no other. With new commissions and a packed programme of more than 100 events, the festival offers an unforgettable experience to be enjoyed with friends and family. Venues across the city will stay open late to present live music, workshops, theatre, exhibitions and much more.
Rituals of all kinds, ancient and modern, are seen in cultures from all over the world; where there is community, there is also ritual. For 2019 we will explore personal and collective rituals, from the spiritual to the habitual, and consider how they help us to understand the world and define, or transcend, our place within it.
LightNight is produced by local social enterprise Open Culture. Printed festival guides can be purchased from selected venues across the city centre (from 15 April), or pre-ordered online at www.lightnightliverpool.co.uk.
