Drag king and comedian, Murray Hill, launches NYC’s biggest Drag King Brunch Spectacular, INTERNATIONAL HOUSE OF DRAG KINGS (IHODK) on Sunday, April 19 at 1 PM at The Cutting Room, continuing once a month at the venue thereafter. The brunch is devoted solely to drag kings…and pancakes. The roster of kings is hand-selected by “the hardest-working middle-aged man in show business” whho serves up breakfast in the afternoon and a no-holds-barred show packed with chest-hair-raising, hilarious, gender-defying performances. Boys, booze, and bacon will be served!
Fueled by coffee and sheer determination, Murray Hill hosts, swapping his pajamas for a three-piece suit and making a public appearance during the day. The lineup for the inaugural show is Brooklyn Nightlife Award-winning Drag King of the Year Maxxx Pleasure, current reigning Mr. Bushwig and former Glam Awards Best Drag King ‘22 Myster E Mel Kiki, Show Ponii and 2021 Entertainer of the Year at the Silver Tusk Burlesque Awards Uncle Freak, with DJ Half ‘N Half (who looks a lot like Murray).
IHOD tickets are $20 for general admission or $35 for VIP tickets, which includes reserved front tables and a meet-and-greet with the kings. There is a $25 food/drink minimum, with a full brunch menu available. For tickets and more information, visit SpinCycleNYC.com.
