HEIST’s fan favourite and critically acclaimed The Princess Show returns to Halifax on Saturday, May 9th at 2037 Gottingen Street for a special daytime all ages presentation to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the cherished show. The Princess Show will be performed at 4pm featuring Aaron Collier and Richie Wilcox along with special guest Elle Noir. More information can be found at www.liveheist.com.
The Princess Show is HEIST’s original fully lip synched live-action anime drag musical extravaganza. The founders of HEIST (Aaron Colliier & Richie Wilcox) perform as their beloved characters Princess Edward and Abel T. Suckizone in this quest to surmount depression in a dystopian fantasy world. Princess Edward’s battle with her inner demons is made literal in this fable in which a strange and soothing beast kidnaps her lover Abel and holds him in a disconnected trance. Will Princess rise to the challenge of radical self love to save her beloved? As one reviewer put it, “the show is a great, big, visually striking celebration of queer identity and learning to love yourself.”
