SAVAGE is a drag extravaganza. A brand-new comedy about the Blonde Bombsite herself, Lily Savage.

Inspired by the life of Paul O'Grady and created with his blessing, SAVAGE is a bold and deeply moving new play, making its world premiere in 2027 at Curve Leicester, prior to London's West End.

Written by multi-award-winning Jonathan Harvey (Gimme Gimme Gimme, Coronation Street, Beautiful Thing), the show follows Paul's journey from the streets of Merseyside to the heart of London's club scene, where, armed with little more than his wits and a wig, he began carving out a place for himself.

From humble roots and an unassuming start emerged Lily Savage: the fearless, foul-mouthed alter ego who would defy convention and win the hearts of millions.

The 2027 run will star RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner Danny Beard in the title role, directed by Nikolai Foster (Kinky Boots, Legally Blonde).

Funny, raw, and full of heart, this is the story of how Paul became Lily and how Lily became a British icon."
