About the show
Glamrou: Drag Mother is a comedy show presented by AEG Presents at Piccolo during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Iraqi queen Glamrou and Glamrou's mother fight for the spotlight with competing narratives of what really happened, in a drag hall of mirrors where one queen's truth is another queen's fiction. The show features live music, live comedy and live delusion, with Glamrou — described as a Muslim drag sensation — setting out to activate the audience's Freudian wounds, with a stiletto.
Why see this show?
A sharp, funny show built around competing perspectives and family drama — the hall-of-mirrors conceit gives Glamrou room to be outrageous while the mother-daughter dynamic anchors it in something recognisable. Live music and live comedy make for a full evening.
