PANTI & HEIDI KONNT<br />
From the underbelly of glamour and controversy, the cream of Tranny<br />
Ireland administers legal highs that won’t get you down. Panti Bliss,<br />
the Queen of all things gay and beautiful.... and Heidi Konnt, who is<br />
just a konnt. Individually both Panti (Ruler of Alternative Miss Ireland<br />
and Star of the hit shows In these Shoes and All Dolled Up) and Heidi<br />
(Winner Alternative Miss Ireland 2005, RTÉ’s The Savage Eye) have<br />
attracted critical acclaim from all manner of press and even Trinity<br />
Scholars. Together they tear it up in this very rare sharing of the one<br />
stage. Wigs will fly in this very special evening of the sort of thing<br />
you won’t find on RTÉ. This is serious tranny cabaret. Political, sick,<br />
fabulous and darn right funny.<br />

Patti Plinko<br />
and her Boy<br />
After the success of their self released album Bohemian<br />
Suicide, gaining critical acclaim with sell out shows<br />
around Europe, manic chanteuse Patti Plinko (she also<br />
plays the ukulele!) and her Boy look set to continued<br />
success. Patti’s mesmerizing, seductive throaty vocals flirt<br />
amongst a fusion of music and cinematic influences from<br />
twisted guitars, violins, beaten pots and whisky bottles to<br />
experiments in vinyl & sound.<br />
“An unmissable chanteuse” ★★★★★ TIME OUT<br />

Cirque de Légume<br />
Enjoy 50 minutes of comic absurd mayhem as two idiots<br />
put on a Cirque-du-Soleil type show using only a chair and<br />
a box of cast-off vegetables.<br />
Marvel at the Veget-animal! Enthrall at the Leek of Power!<br />
Fantasize over the Onion Strip Tease! In these acts (and<br />
more) the award-winning Cirque de Légume finds a hidden<br />
beauty in cast-off vegetables and shows us how beautiful<br />
life can be if we only stop to play with it.<br />
It is a hilarious love story between two clowns, their<br />
vegetables, and us. A show that visits the margins of<br />
our cast-off, disposable world to discover the wonderful<br />
impermanence of everything and the magic of life that<br />
grows underground and unseen.<br />
