All the King's Men: Mansplaining with Drag Kings
Need advice on dating, life, or astrophysics? Get tips from our "expert" panel of drag kings in this unrecorded advice podcast. “Brilliant but bonkers”, the Kings are ready to mansplain their way into your hearts with their special brand of overconfidence and macho dance moves in Fringe's most unapologetically manly improv show.
Hilarious! Each King has a distinct personality and play off each other as a perfect ensemble. My only critique has to do with the venue. Without having a raised stage, anyone behind the second row cant see whats happening on the floor. There was a fantastic finale dance number that involved a lot of floor work, and everyone was craning their necks to try and get a peek. Maybe next year they can get a venue with a raised stage?
A wild ride from start to finish. Fantastic energy and great performer chemistry. Every show is so wildly different, you never know what to expect.
This is the only show at fringe I make it a point to try and see every single performance! They masterfully turn the audience questions into uncontrollably funny scenes. The Dance numbers at the start and end of the show are also a treat!
I cannot recommend them enough! Remember to think of a question to put into the jar so you can have a chance of having yours read out!
All The Kings Men: Mansplaining with Drag Kings is a comedic show produced by Sorry Not Sorry Improv is a hilarious one hour live ‘podcast’ where six Drag Kings give the audience advice on everything from relationships to the best way to bulk up. The cast are pros as setting up sketches and thinking on their feet. They work well together, building off each other. One of the hardest parts about an unscripted show is that it’s well - unscripted but this crew’s performances felt so clean that you almost forget that the whole show is merely built on the spot. The group got in to character with such ease, never breaking once. This was my first ever drag show and I didn’t know what to expect but I found my self laughing the whole time, as did the audience. One of the funnest improv shows I’ve seen in awhile. The show was entirely sold out, not a single seat was left unclaimed. Grab your tickets to All The Kings Men: Mainsplaining with Drag Kings while you still can at the Edmonton Fringe August 18th - 24th, 2025 at the Sugar Swing Ballroom.
