Meet the newly announced stars of Death Drop at the Garrick Theatre

Anna Phylactic is perhaps best known for hosting club nights at Aftershock in Manchester's Gay Village. Her fabulous lip-syncing skills and daring looks earned her a spot in the finals of the UK ambassador for RuPaul's Drag Race competition in 2015. In 2019, she joined a team of drag queens in C4's Drag SOS, in which she gave Brits makeovers and helped them unlock their inner diva.

Houston native and London resident Kemah Bob is a drag queen, writer, comedian and producer best known for her comedy routines that cast the spotlight on Black cultural identity, sexuality, gender, and mental health. She frequently performs stand-up comedy in London and across the UK and hosts The FOC IT UP Comedy Club and Femmes of Colour events.

LoUis CYfer (Lucy Jane Parkinson), whose preferred pronouns are 'they' and 'them', is the first Drag King to win Drag Idol UK and is a frequent performer among the UK cabaret scene. They regularly collaborate with the Milk Presents theatre company, and in addition to having appeared in a number of UK theatre shows, they have also led drag king workshops for Cabaret College.

Vinegar Strokes (Daniel Jacob) is a former contestant on the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race UK, in which she placed 8th. She holds the records for being the first queen since Season 7 to survive the bottom 2 of episode 1 and not be placed in the bottom 2 in episode 2 of a RuPaul's Drag Race series and was also the first queen to lip-sync twice in the UK series. Vinegar has West End acting experience, having portrayed Sandra Bollock in Everybody's Talking About Jamie at the Apollo Theatre. She currently is the host of a rec-cap series for the first season of Canada's Drag Race entitled Extra Lap Re-cap.

Holly Stars is a stand-up comedian from 'The North', where she enjoys a leisurely life of Tia Maria and petty theft. Constantly the victim of her terrible neighbours, Fat Julie and Posh Sue, she tells their stories on Instagram and regularly escapes to London and Manchester to run her sell-out comedy cabaret, Holly Stars' Time of the Month. Last seen on the West End in Trafalgar Studio's 2019 sell-out pantomime,Cinderella, Holly returns this winter as writer and performer in the Garrick Theatre's Death Drop.
