A Life NOT in Heels with Ophelia Balls

Ophelia: Unfiltered, Unplugged, Unmissable

For the very first time, surprisingly, and without so much as a glittery safety net, Ophelia takes to the stage to tell it like it was. Long before mobile phones, social media, or RuPaul’s Drag Race, there was life. Real, loud, fabulous life.

Join one of the North East’s legendary drag queens as she opens her vault of memories to reveal the people, places, and powerful moments that shaped her journey. Expect outrageous tales, heartfelt recollections, and the kind of razor-sharp wit only earned through decades of eyeliner, eyelashes, and existential resilience.

This is not just a performance. It’s a living archive. A celebration of survival, sass, and sequins.
