Blackpool gets 21 million visitors a year – so why is a show about it 'too regional'?

I saw Liza Minnelli’s performance on the Muppet Show – and was inspired to become a drag star
A late-night viewing of the Cabaret star’s appearance with Kermit and co set me on the path to the West End. I even have a tattoo of her on my thigh!

Mr Blackpool’s Seaside Spectacular, an end of the pier show at the end of the world… 6th November, Northern Stage, presented with Curious Arts. 8th November, Southbank Centre. Commissioned by @marlboroughprods.bsky.social and @attenboroughctr.bsky.social. Supported by Arts Council England.
Four performers are on a stage in various positions. Two at either side of the image are dressed in drag as Mick Hucknall and are on go karts. One on the left of the image is pulling a face akin to a grimace and the other is giving fashion. They are in large wigs and black suits with white shirts. One performer at the back of the image in the centre left is stood up holding a CO2 gun and is dressed in drag as a stick of rock. The other performer at the front of the image centre right is laid on the floor in a giant lilac feather showgirl costume with one arm holding the headdress. Behind the performers is heras fencing, traffic panels and pyro. Throughout the image is confetti. The lights are lilac and it looks incredibly exciting.

Now the proud owner of this beautiful, pre-loved, second hand leather outfit from Berlin. You can, and most certainly should, call me Daddy. Holidays are fun.
Harry in full leather look (jacket, trousers and boots) stands in front of a small potted hedge which is in front of glass windows reflecting a sunset. Harry has blue sunglasses and a leather hat at a jaunty angle.

Banal update but honestly finding the trains so unreliable these days that coach journeys are just really doing it for me. Way cheaper too. Sure, they take a little longer, but I just have nana nap. Removes the worry about freezing on platforms while multiple services cancel again and again.

Mr Blackpool. A seaside rave at the end of the world. My new show previews at ACCA in Brighton on Sat 1st March. A theatrical installation embedding the history of ‘end of the pier’ entertainment, variety, drag and dance music. attenboroughcentre.com/events/5365/... @marlboroughprods.bsky.social
Mr Blackpool (performed by Harry Clayton-Wright) towers over a model village wearing a large lilac feather headdress and bikini with see through shorts, all embellished with beads and rhinestones. Mr Blackpool, wearing glasses and with big black beard, has pale white skin with pink blush, purple lipstick, black smokey eyes with purple glitter and pencil thin eyebrows. Mr Blackpool’s large dusky pink heel steps on the roof of one of the small houses.

Just thinking about that time I got to kiss @jdavies-studio.bsky.social in Melbourne last year.
Two people kissing in front of a garage door by an old green car. One is wearing a leopard print cap, white shirt, backpack, black shorts and socks and walking boots. The other is wearing a blue t-shirt, denim shorts, white socks and shoes.

Two years since we lost my dad. A complex relationship, for sure, but I come back to two quotes of his that offer me immense comfort when I think of him. “I may not have been like most parents are or should be, and I can’t change that, but I’m very proud of you.” “Just be Harry - you can’t fail.”

A brown-haired woman stand before a court in a red drass with a black waistband. She appeals to the judge "your honour, I may have committed mail fraud, but I can also do the entire Kate Bush Wuthering Heights Dance." She extends her arms forward in front of her, then does a flourishing pirouette. The judge bangs his gavel. With great intensity he shouts "I've seen enough! Not guilty!" The women looks humble in her legal victory.
