In Seven Days

Sunday, 12 June 2011

A finale of music, a sea of pink, some Wicked bingo and even the chance at a new (or is that old?) wardrobe combine with Shakespeare and contemporary dance for a week that is as diverse as we are! Here is our list of gay choices for the week of June 13 - 19, 2011.

Of course, you'll want to check our Events Calendar for details of all the latest happenings around the city. You can also get our daily events feed directly on your iGoogle homepage!

Got an event? Send us the details and we'll get it added to our calendar (and maybe see it listed here in the coming weeks).

Wednesday, 15 JUne: wicked bingo

The Witches of Oz have descended on the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in a show that cleverly turns the Land of Oz on its head, and tonight some of Vancouver's most talented drag performers pay homage to Wicked with a special edition of Bingo for Life. Hosted by legendary drag queen Joan-E, come play bingo like you've never played bingo before all going to support of Vancouver's Friends for Life. We're told it's going to be wickedly good (sorry, that's what we were told)! Visit http://www.celebritiesnightclub.com for more information.
