"The Dirty Shirley Show!" In Concert at Franky Bradley's

"The Dirty Shirley Show!" was originally presented with co-production support with Cannonball Festival in Fall of 2025, playing to sold-out houses and recieving industry praise for the confessional Gen-Z sapphic sermon energy. Fringie Winner Rose Luardo said of Shirley's Fringe debut: "Your musical reaches into the cosmic refrigerator, pulls out raw misery, butters it on both sides, eats it, and shits out pure joy."

The musical selections ripped from Shirley's debaucherous diary will return for this one-night-only fundraiser: peppered with stand-up comedy, clownish interludes from her ladies in waiting/tip kittens, AND special guest performances from fellow trans drag artists/musicians who make their own original work! Full guest roster TBD but will include Mother Yari of Henn House, Smexy Marz/Blu Pangine, and Fern Morehouse!
