Bianca Del Rio: It Gets Bitter

World Comedy Tour

About the Event

Get ready to swallow a jagged pill of truth because the "Clown in a Gown" is back and meaner than ever. Bianca Del Rio returns to the global stage with her seventh solo stand-up tour, "It Gets Bitter". This milestone trek isn't just another night of comedy; it’s a celebration of 30 years of professional drag excellence and three decades of Bianca absolutely hating everything you stand for. Expect a masterclass in vitriol as the RuPaul’s Drag Race winner turns her razor-sharp tongue toward the absolute absurdity of modern life. From the vapid landscape of pop culture to the chaotic state of world events, and—most importantly—the mundane things people do every day that drive her to the brink, no topic is off-limits and no ego is too big to be deflated.

A Stern Warning: If you are sensitive, easily offended, or possess a fragile sense of self-worth, do not select seats near the stage. In classic Bianca fashion, the front row is a firing squad, and no one is safe from her legendary biting insults and lightning-fast wit. She’s seasoned, she’s legendary, and she’s officially exhausted by your nonsense. The old saying is "It gets better", but Bianca is proof that after 30 years in tights "It Gets Bitter"!!
