Burlesque fundraiser online for Kirkcaldy's Kings Theatre

The event comes one month after the live venue was forced to close its doors because of the coronavirus lockdown.

The Live Lounge had just started to establish as a vibrant, popular venue for a wide range of shows and community events – and is widely viewed as one of the many projects the town has to protect through the current crisis.

Saturday’s event aims to raise vital funds to safeguard its future – and provide great entertainment for people stuck at home.

The Contrived Cabaret promises music, dance, spoken word and lots of burlesque, plus special guest Roxy Stardust.Tickets are priced from £10 with all proceeds to the Kings Theatre Kirkcaldy project.
