Classical Vauxhall 2022 - The Royal Opera House is Burning - Late Night Drag - 12/02/22

Kangmin Justin Kim (countertenor, aka Kimchilia Bartoli) / Fiachra Garvey (piano)

A drag show like no other, harking back to the frivolity and social defiance of the Pleasure Gardens. Join Kangmin Justin Kim; a very rare classical singing voice and one of the most sought-after countertenors of his generation. Enjoy musical numbers from Broadway and opera melodies delivered in vocal and sartorial technicolour!
