About
Amanda Monroe is a drag performer for hire in Melbourne, VIC.
Opened for Joan Rivers, appeared in Kath and Kim, and has done drag from New York to London and all over Australia. Amanda Monroe's shows are built on lipsynched comedy numbers, singalong standards and quick jokes woven around whoever's being celebrated. She runs drag bingo too, cards, pens and prizes included, and brings her own sound system, so a lounge room works as well as a function centre. Hens parties and baby showers are home turf, though corporate rooms get the same treatment. Formats stretch or shrink to fit the running sheet.
The show
You'll laugh a lot. That's the honest summary. Amanda lipsynchs comedy songs and old favourites, with jokes and plenty of carrying on with the crowd between numbers. People tend to remember the night for a long time afterwards, which is more than most entertainment manages.
On the day
Everything arrives with her: the sound system and Amanda herself in full drag. If bingo is part of the booking, the cards, pens and prizes come too. Nothing for you to organise.
Performance options
There are set show formats, but none of them are rigid. They can be modified, stretched out or trimmed back to fit your running sheet and however the night is meant to go.
