Event info

This is a one-of-a-kind drag show, created by legendary Reykjavík drag troupe, House of Heart. Through the glitter lens of drag, you will learn all about their good, their bad, and even their battle against evil forces. “House of Heart: A Drag Saga” is where theater and drag meet in pure confusion - an epic story, filled with glamor, laughter and stupidity! There will be classic and not-so-classic drag acts, dancing, music, and of course a lot of silly jokes. You do not want to miss this feast!

The show was a smashing success at Reykjavík Fringe 2024 and won the “Best Ensemble” award and the “Notice Me” award. Here are some words from the audience:

"An important element in the Reykjavik drag scene. A strong performance with a vital message.” - Cristina Agueda, dancer and lighttech.

“Drag Saga brings true drag atmosphere into the theater - be loud, have fun and let the creativity flow over you. An incredibly fun and inspiring show that no drag lover can miss out on.” - Gógó Starr, drag queen.

“If you're anything like me, your eyes WILL be fixated on the spectacle. Yeah we've all heard the story and yeah we all know the players, but the presentation is what makes it. Not to mention wondering what's up next; is it a solo act? A duo? A whole-ass four-eography? WHO KNOWS! All this to say that I was entertained. Shit's good. Really good.” -Turner Strait, drag king.

More about the House of Heart:

In “House of Heart: A Drag Saga”, Lola von Heart, Chardonnay Bublée, Milo de Mix and Úlla la Delish invite you into their little world, for one night only. Key players in the Reykjavík drag scene, they have graced all the main stages in the city through the last few years - from divey bars to the big stages of Reykjavík Pride. The House of Heart is not only a drag troupe but a close-knit group of friends who love creating art together. Their use of the terms “House” and “drag-family” are a respectful nod to queer culture and the legacy of ballroom, and the Hearts always bring the values of community and queer joy to their shows.

Wheelchair accessibility: The venue is wheelchair accessible, including bathrooms.

Bathrooms: The bathrooms are marked as gendered, but we encourage you to pay this no mind! Just use the bathroom of your choosing and respect others.

Sound and light: Loud music is an integral part of the show, so is the use of moving lights, including flashing lights. A smoke machine will be used at times in the show.
