You’ll be on the edge of your seat as she explodes into rose petals, vanishes in a puff of smoke, saws herself in half, conjures a rainstorm, even transforms into a tree in front of your eyes (to name just a few). But the real magic is the way that these illusions and deceptions serve to unmask deeper truths, sparking fresh analysis of gender, fame, family, and the importance of dreaming big and living life over-the-top.

Sasha Velour - Smoke & Mirrors

Featuring the music of Annie Lennox, Whitney Houston, Shirley Bassey, Judy Garland, Celine Dion, Sia, Nina Simone, Le Tigre and more. Costumes designed by long-time collaborator Diego Montoya.

The drag icon is constantly reinventing herself, and it's our privilege to watch her do it.

'Smoke & Mirrors' is a spellbinding tour de force."
- Forbes

Sasha Velour’s “Smoke & Mirrors” toured Australia and New Zealand in January 2019, had a sold-out 8-night New York City residency in March 2019, toured 23 cities in North America in the fall of 2019, and had limited sold-out engagements in Los Angeles and London, all to rave reviews.

What the critics say

[An] inventive, surprisingly openhearted show…Expressionist performance-art illustration.
- The New York Times
The intensely personal [Smoke & Mirrors] shows what a top-of-her-game queen Velour really is, both as an artist and as a storyteller.
- Paper Magazine
A blend of music, magic tricks and runway-worthy looks.
- V Magazine
‘Smoke & Mirrors’ takes the traditional drag show, if there is such a thing, and fragments and distorts it in a funhouse mirror, to surprising and beguiling effect.
- The Columbus Dispatch
Velour has pulled out all the stops.
- San Antonio Current

The Palace Theatre of Varieties opened on Whit Monday 1891 and cost its owners the then colossal sum of £40,500. In the late 1970’s the Palace Theatre underwent a major refurbishment and re-opened in 1981 with Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar and has since then retained its position as the premier provincial touring venue.
