Adore Delano, The Asylum, Birmingham - review
RuPaul's Drag Race alumnus Adore Delano dazzled fans in Birmingham last night when her Whatever tour came to The Asylum - party.
First on the bill to warm up the crowd however, were Birmingham art collective Drag Punk, made up of performers Lilith, Amber Cadaverous, Paul Aleksandr and Tacky Alex.
Each member of the quartet presented something wacky and different which cemented the group's message of championing weirdness and owning being an outsider.
Lilith delighted rockers in the room with a head-banging mashup of Britney Spears' Toxic and A Static Lullaby's cover of the same track. She channelled the energy of each song flawlessly with strong dance moves and a tight lip sync.
Amber performed a powerful piece that explored a woman's place in the drag community, with lip sync routines to the likes of Shania Twain's Man! I Feel Like A Woman and Cyndi Lauper's Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.
Paul followed this emotive piece with a routine that encapsulated the group's weird and wonderful message. He danced expertly to Drag Race winner Jinkx Monsoon's cover of Radiohead hit Creep, interspersed with lines from cult film Beetlejuice and 4 Non Blonde's rock anthem What's Up.
