Backed by a full band, this show is guaranteed to have you on your feet screaming or bent over in hysterics. Kaye is utterly unforgettable and not to be missed!

‘It makes for a damn near perfect example of the art of cabaret.’ ★★★★★ The Reviews Hub

‘Bitchy, glitzy, ballsy, glamorous and fiery, The Butch is Back is hard to ignore.’ ★★★★★ Lou Reviews

‘His golden voice, sassy moves and ability to riff off a crowd are eminent from the off.’ ★★★★★ Broadway World

The Butch is Back is beautifully queer, and bloody outrageous. Much like past trauma, this is a show you won’t ever forget, and Kaye truly proves that laughter is the best medicine.’ ★★★★★ Lost in Theatre Land

‘With the melodic sweetness of a nightingale and the strength of a honey badger, Kaye delights in bringing his whirlwind of energy into a high octane, irreverent and fantastically over the top drag comedy cabaret.’ ★★★★★ Theatre & Tonic

‘A glorious comedy cabaret that’s by turns funny, poignant and political – and never less than fabulously executed’
