The Resurrection Files

THE RESURRECTION FILES

In the year 3030, Artificial Intelligence governs the planet. Emotion deleted. Culture archived.

Drag erased under the Drag Eradication Protocol.

Or so the system believed.

Hidden inside a forbidden digital archive known as The Glam Vault, drag history survives.

A rogue archival AI calling herself M.I.L.F. 9000 Mechanised Intelligence for Legendary Femmes finds it.

She begins opening the Resurrection Files. The first file to awaken: Madones the singular drag diva, glamour and shade incarnate.

The Resurrection Files is a cinematic drag theatre production where pop icons, cabaret rebellion, and futuristic spectacle collide.

Expect:

• A two-act spectacle with a full company, M.I.L.F. 9000's narration, and one electric finale
• Iconic pop and cabaret anthems reimagined
• High-impact choreography and immersive AV visuals
• Glamour, excess, and unapologetic camp
• A powerful Pride narrative of queer survival and rebirth
• A guest runway moment from Cape Town's own local drag performers

This is not a club night.

This is a staged Resurrection.

Bold. Emotional. Visually striking.

And at the end of everything showbiz never dies.

A SHOW FOR EVERYONE

Staged in the heart of Cape Town during Pride 2027, The Resurrection Files is built for anyone who loves spectacle, story, and a great night out locals and visitors alike. You don't need to belong to any particular community to be swept up in it; you just need to love a great show.

Pride with purpose supporting AidsArk.

A portion of every ticket sold supports AidsArk (UK Charity No. 1093966) channelled through Baphumelele in Khayelitsha, where 100% of donations reach frontline care with zero overhead.

Our 2026 premiere raised R200,000, funding home-based follow-up care for people living with HIV after hospital discharge helping them stay on their medication, rebuild their health, and return to independent life in their communities.

AidsArk's trustees called it a donation that would make "a massive difference" to people in Khayelitsha hospitalised with HIV-related illness.

Every ticket you buy is saving lives.
