XL Cabaret is pulling back the curtains and letting it loose in August with two hilarious, mouth-dropping shows. Join Queens, Hedda Lettuce and Shangela for a night of comedy, singing, and many surprises that will keep the audience at The Edge of their seats. The Queen of Green will impress all first with her limited engagement shows, The Carpets Match The Drapes, starting August 8th at 8PM followed by the riotous HOT MESS show with Lady Bunny and Bianca Del Rio. Shangela will wow audiences days later with her show, LAQUIFA IS HALLELOOSIN' IT! for one night only on August 10th at 9PM.

Still sizzling from her standing-room only debut at the prestigious Feinstein's at the Regency Hotel, the inimitable Queen of Green celebrates 20 years in show biz. In addition to her award winning spit-fire comic stylings, Hedda Lettuce will be belting original comedic songs such as, “You Only Text Me When You’re Drunk”, “You Can Touch Me Anywhere But Don’t Touch My Hair”, and more. Backed up by the one and only Paul Leschen band, this show is a must see. The New York Times has called it “Singer and satirist impresario” and The Washington Times hailed it as “A scream!”

Shangela, fan favorite from RuPaul's Drag Race, promises to bitch slap New York City with her new one-night stand up comedy experience. The world's first post-modern pimp ho vows to take audiences on a side-splitting journey from the backstreets of Texas to the Hollywood 'CatWalk' of Fame with tales of 'Ho-ishness', original songs, dance numbers and more.

XL Nightclub, Cabaret & Lounge is an exciting new nightlife destination by John Blair, Beto Sutter and Brandon Voss. The venue features a state-of-the-art dance club with 14,000 square feet of high-tech party space, a professional 200-seat cabaret and a comfortable lounge catering to neighborhood residents, hotel guests and the community. XL, located at 512 West 42nd Street, is open seven nights a week and ideally situated as the city’s premier entertainment destination for New Yorkers and tourists alike.
