Angela Bra

Description

As Miss Angela Bra, I can offer a range of different services beyond what you might expect from a drag queen. As an experienced and award-winning comedian, I can create sets suitable for all kinds of event and, in the case of an event such as a hen do, gently rib the bride to be with personalised material! I sing a variety of songs ranging from 00's dance classics to pop hits throughout the decades; plus my own original comedy songs and parodies.
I am an experience party bingo host and call the numbers in time to music with sing-a-longs and stage games also in the mix. I also DJ and host k ... araoke.
I often combine these skills in a party night or private booking - opening with some crowd-focussed comedy, leading into party bingo and then concluding with karaoke sing-a-longs and DJing. I have my own PA system and lights suitable for parties of up to 80.
As an ex-primary school teacher (who still tutors), I also enjoy working with children and have hosted several drag queen storytimes. Read More

In 2022, she was a finalist in Manchester’s drag competition The Crown and was also a 2022 and 2023 venue finalist in Drag Idol. Angela’s cabaret combines stand-up, crowd work, stage games, parodies, her own original songs and popular covers with a drag twist.
