Support Queer Theater…Check Out Fantastic Z’s Big Gay-La

April 11, 2016• byMichael Strangeways

You still have time to snag tickets to Friday evening’s big theater gala event. The adorable kids over at Fantastic.Z, one of Seattle’s few LGBTQ identified theater companies, are having their annual fundraiser/party on April 15, 2016 at Melrose Market Studios, 1532 Minor Ave (just around the corner from The Baltic Room!)

This “Gay-La” allows Fantastic Z to put on their season which includes the upcoming camp classic play, PSYCHO BEACH PARTY by Charles Busch, May 26 thru June 11, 2016 at Eclectic Theatre, 1214 10th Avenue on Capitol Hill (between Union and Madison). A playful satire of 1960s teenage beach movies, but with a “Sybil” twist, “Psycho Beach Party” is all about Chicklet, your average teenage girl wanting to be a surfer but handicapped by having split personalities. It’s a genre/gender blending/bending free for all for the whole homesexually inclined family!

But, productions like “Psycho Beach Party” can’t happen without a bit of fundraising. Check out Friday night’s Gay-La to make those dreams come alive…here’s all the poo, including info on the many delightful prized being raffled off (Get tickets HERE):

But, not necessarily in that order.
