Charlotte Welcomes Jinkx Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme for a Spectacular Holiday Show

Get Ready for Holiday Cheer in Charlotte with Jinkx & DeLa!

Charlotte, are you ready? The holiday season is kicking off earlier than usual this year, and it’s all thanks to the wonderfully zany duo of Jinkx Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme. They’re bringing their iconic Holiday Show to the Booth Playhouse on November 7th and 8th, and it’s going to be an experience unlike anything you’ve seen before!

What to Expect from The Jink & DeLa Holiday Show

This marks the seventh year the pair has taken their holiday show on the road, showcasing a mix of comedy and musical performances that evolve every time they go on stage. “The Jink & DeLa Holiday Show” isn’t just any old holiday event; it’s a unique blend of festive spirit, comedy, and musical flair that changes yearly. Jinkx and DeLa dedicate huge chunks of time to brainstorming and rehearsing to deliver something fresh and engaging for their audiences.

What’s on this year’s itinerary? Well, let’s just say they’re tackling another classic holiday tale with their own hilarious twist. Jinkx shared how they often take beloved stories, “turn them on their ear,” and create something that speaks to the current cultural moment. “We always try to approach it from a new perspective,” she said. Expect lively performances filled with original tunes and pop parodies that will keep everyone—yes, even your cranky uncle—entertained!

A Homecoming for Queer Joy

This year especially, BenDeLaCreme emphasized the importance of bringing their show to cities that need a little more joy and celebration, particularly among the queer community. “It felt really important to us… to hit the spots in the country that needed some queer joy and levity more than ever right now,” he explained. After all, in a time when everyone could use a bit of cheer, their show aims to create a sense of family and community for all.

Building a Connection Through Laughter

Not only is their show a lively affair, but the audience experience is something truly special. “No matter the place we are, we get to enjoy really consistently joyful, excited, celebratory, loving, supportive audiences,” BenDeLaCreme remarked. In a world that feels increasingly divided, created spaces filled with laughter and acceptance are more important than ever.

The Importance of Queer Representation

The conversation also ventured into the realm of music and pop culture, particularly around the rising star Chappell Roan. Jinkx mentioned how refreshing it is to see a new generation of queer musicians stepping into the spotlight and how Chappell’s music embodies true authenticity. “I am all for any new queer mainstream star who wants to say, ‘f*ck you, I’m queer,’” she exclaimed. With strong representation coming from artists like Chappell, it is inspiring for audiences and other performers alike.
