A dazzling new concert, Guts + Glitter, will take over The Clapham Grand on Sunday 31st August 2025 for one night only, bringing together a stellar cast of West End performers in a powerful celebration of queer joy, resilience and community.
Created by TikTok sensation and theatre producer Patrick Lewin, Guts + Glitter is a bold fundraising event with all profits going to LGBTQIA+ youth charities akt, Not A Phase, and Just Like Us.
Hosted by West End drag icon Tiana Biscuit, the evening promises a vibrant mix of solo, duet and ensemble performances, all drawn from queer narratives or reimagined through an empowering queer lens.
The line-up includes Emily Benjamin (Cabaret, Bat Out of Hell), Allie Daniel (Hadestown, As You Like It), Erin Caldwell (Six, Heathers), and WhatsOnStage Award winner Jeevan Braich (Starlight Express, We Aren’t Kids Anymore).
Also joining the cast are Jaz Terry (Little Shop of Horrors, & Juliet) and Robin Simões da Silva (Book of Mormon, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), with further casting to be announced.
Patrick Lewin said: “Guts + Glitter was created out of both pride and urgency. In a time when queer people – and especially trans people – are facing growing hostility, discrimination and erasure, this concert is about visibility and community. It’s a space to come together: to celebrate, honour our stories and stand in solidarity. We’re making something bold and beautiful and reminding each other that we all deserve to be seen, supported and celebrated.”
The event will also offer community concession rates and Pay It Forward tickets for asylum seekers, low-income individuals and LGBTQIA+ people who might not otherwise be able to attend.
