Really wonderful experience. Well organized, great theater, wonderful selection of music and very moving testimonials. So glad we went!
I went with friends & saw many more there. I loved it. What a gift this choir is to our community.
I went to hear the choruses sing, and wasn't much geared up for a drag show. (I've attended my share of drag performances over the decades and typically find them repetitive and overdone.) When the characters came onstage, the costuming was over-the-top and I thought "Here we go again." Long story short, I can't remember when I've laughed so hard. When drunken Margo falls into the choir, I nearly peed my pants (would have, had there not been an intermission). The exaggerated costumes actually perfectly fit the outrageous comedy. I'd heard the men's chorus before at SoKno Pride in 2022, in a cavernous beer hall with no stage and a noisy crowd who were apparently not there to listen to a performance - not exactly ideal conditions - so it was good to hear them in a venue like the Bijou. The women's chorus is a fairly new entity - and it shows. I trust they will mature into the tight ensemble that the more experienced men's group presents.
We went Sat matinee. Singing, drag Queen play was great; queens were polished and funny. I’ve seen three Christmas shows at Bijou and this was my favorite.
We enjoyed the show immensely! Beautiful,,funny, and professional!
This show was wonderful!!! I think it was their BEST SHOW EVER!!! The skit was hilarious and made me laugh out loud, and the singing was fabulous and put me in the holiday spirit!!! I try to make this show a holiday tradition each year!!! My hats off to a great show!!! ??????????????
The chorus is excellent. We always enjoy the singing. I find the drag show interludes to be distracting. The plot wasn't interesting and the performances weren't very good. I would prefer that the drag interludes be eliminated in preference for more music.
The Knoxville Gay Men’s Chorus “Rebel Without A Claus” was great!!! ??
We had such a Nice time. Really great performance and singing. And a fun show overall. Highly recommend.
