Kate Butch and Crudi Dench are jetting off to Transylvania as UK finalists in the Eurovision Song Contest, but their trip becomes a bloody nightmare when their Airbnb host Dracula drives a wedge between them, threatening not only their lives but also their chance of stardom.

Written by Eleanor Mason and Matthew Stallworthy, with original music by Nick Upton, Drag Queens vs Vampires follows hot on the heels of last year’s Fringe hit, Drag Queens vs Zombies.

Featuring Haus of Dench's fantastic style of camp humour, plenty of audience participation and some great kitsch outfits, you're in for a real treat with this production.

It's your typical vampire story but with a brilliantly funny and deliciously camp twist. We did not stop laughing for the entirety of the show, Besties!

Butch and Dench are so good at what they do, this franchise could go on forever; zombies, vampires, what could they possibly encounter next....

The funniest night out at the Fringe this year!

You'd be batty to miss it!

***** Five stars
