BREAKOUT ATL: GRAND FINALE
10 FINALISTS. 3 FINAL CONTENDERS. 1 WINNER. $5,000 + A CRUISE FOR TWO.
This is it, Atlanta! After three audition nights, a semifinal showdown, and 60 queer performers giving it everything they've got, only 10 remain. Presented by OUT Local, BreakOUT ATL is a citywide LGBTQIA+ performance competition celebrating drag artists, singers, dancers, comedians, burlesque performers, and more - all competing for a $5,000 grand prize and a cruise for two! Now, the competition comes to its biggest stage yet at Out Front Theatre Company, where one performer will officially become the first-ever BreakOUT ATL champion!
WHAT TO EXPECT
The GRAND FINALE features our top 10 performers, each getting four minutes to show our panel of judges and live audience why they deserve to win it all. One night. Ten incredible performers. And one life-changing moment.
