Father JC’s Holy Show

22nd October 2025

Tom Thumb Theatre

The Irish Drag Priest with mass appeal is taking a divine pilgrimage across the nation, bringing his big mass to the masses at the Tom Thumb Theatre in Margate

7.30pm - 8.30pm

‘Father JC’s Holy Show’ is life-changing, iconic, epic, glamorous, and just fabulous... but there’s one small catch… he hasn’t written it yet!

With the help of an amateur DJ (Michelle Pittoni - Soho Theatre, Clean Break), he will amp up the sacrament with the big hymns, the bops, the beats, and anthems! What could possibly go wrong?

Written and performed by multi-award-nominated artist Laura Wyatt O’Keeffe, this drag comedy extravaganza blends rituals and raves, faith and fun, in a divine hour of chaos and celebration on the dancefloor. With direction by Grace Duggan (National Theatre, Donmar Warehouse), expect big laughs, bigger performances, and the kind of soul-searching you won’t find in any pew.

JC has graced the stages at Soho Theatre, Roundhouse, and Clapham Grand, and blessed the crowds at All Together Now, Wilderness, Latitude, Mighty Hoopla, and Margate Pride. Now, it’s time for you to experience the holy hilarity for yourself!

Designed by Emily Harwood (Barbican, The Lyric), get ready for an unforgettable night of music, mayhem, and a little bit of holiness—because this is Father JC’s Holy Show!

Age restriction: 14+
