There are plenty of challengers ready to knock her down a peg and take her title as she offers her annual “Pride Open Challenge,” to anyone on the SCOWL roster! Could Rhonda McConners step up? Maybe the original party werewolf, London Jack, will answer the call for a rematch. Or perhaps a new challenger will rise! Who will come out on top and leave with the title?

Don’t miss this evening of very silly, very queer, pro wrestling-style stage combat action!

Queer folks have existed in pro wrestling since it began in vaudeville and as part of carnival culture and continues to be a campy, over the top style of theatre where out Queer and Trans folks can thrive as champions. SCOWL: Queerapalooza honors, in a theatrical way, that history of vaudevillian clownery while crafting stories for a modern audience, and paving a way to ensure Queer and Trans actors can work up stage combat skills and get the opportunities they’ve traditionally been denied and feel like a champion while doing it. Don’t miss this evening of very silly, very queer, pro wrestling-style stage combat action!
