BECOMING BARBRA: The Story Behind the Showgirl Come witness a BRAND-NEW, one-woman drag and theatre extravaganza starring Barbra Bardot at the iconic Majestic Theatre on Saturday, September 27th at 8p.m.! Tickets on sale Friday August 15th at 10 a.m.!
You’ve seen her as the leading lady in TaDa! Events’ Kinky Boots. You watched her run the show as the queen of Kaleidoscope Drag Lounge. Now, come see our come from away queen tell you the story of how she rose to stardom - an intimate journey filled to the brim with drama, growth, and so much glitter.
Becoming Barbra is a brand-new theatrical spectacular that fuses lip sync, live singing, choreography, and theatre into a single one-woman drag extravaganza! From humble beginnings in the Toronto Village to a mid-pandemic move to The Rock, Barbra Bardot’s star is burning bright and soaring far. Eventually, she finds herself busier than ever, between landing the lead role in her favourite musical and fulfilling her dream of opening the city’s first drag bar. But when the pressures of hustle culture and the realities of running a business show their face, can she persevere for the sake of her community?
We acknowledge the support of ArtsNL, which last year invested $5.3 million to foster and promote the creation and enjoyment of the arts for the benefit of all Newfoundlanders and Labradorians.
