Do I have to be 21?
Yes, you must be 21+ with a valid ID.
How long is the show?
Shows generally last 2.5 hours with a 15-30 minute intermission.
I made a reservation, but when I got there it was given away. Why?
If no one in your party is present 30 minutes before showtime, your reservation may be given away to another party that arrived earlier
Are food & drinks included in the ticket price?
Food and drinks are NOT included in the ticket price. We do have a full bar with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, we also offer various food options at select shows, but it is not included in the ticket price.
I purchased tickets, but I didn't get any emails. Where are they?
Occasionally our emails get flagged by your spam filter. If you haven’t received anything in your spam folder, email info@thevivaladivashow.com for more information.
The show I wanted to see is sold out, can I still get tickets?
If there is quite a bit of interest, we may add a few more tickets. Follow us on Facebook for updates on ticket availability. If an event is entirely sold out, we’d recommend looking into other dates. All of our shows are performed at least twice. If you’d like to see one of our specialty shows, we make sure to have extra dates throughout their run.
Are tickets available at the door?
Usually. For oversold shows, we are unable to sell tickets at the door, so you shouldn’t count on purchasing tickets at the door. To make sure you have a ticket, purchase your tickets beforehand and place a reservation.
Do I need to dress up?
Dress however you’d like, but know that your host, Jason CoZmo, may have something to say if you aren’t wearing any lipstick!
Should I bring my parents/grandparents/kids?
Absolutely! From ages 21-100, we have something for everyone! As long as they can handle a little foul language and adult humor, they’ll have a great time!
Can I Audition?
Auditions are by invitation only. This show is not a hobby. It’s a job. We pride ourselves on being a professional show, but that means constant work. Regular rehearsals. Demanding time commitments. Long nights. Of course, all of this adds up to an incredibly rewarding experience, but it’s not for the faint of heart. If you’re willing to make the commitment, you can contact us with your interest.
Why do you guys call yourselves "Celebrity Impersonators" instead of Drag Queens?
Celebrity Impersonation is a form of drag. We are both Celebrity Impersonators and Drag Queens. For some of us, our only form of drag is Celebrity Impersonation, so we choose to make the distinction.
Why does everyone go by a male name?
As is tradition in a Celebrity Impersonation show, all of our performers use male names. This is a long held standard of our field that helps point out that we are men not only impersonating women, but iconic stars that require years of practice to emulate.
Do I have to tip?
Tipping is not mandatory, but it is definitely encouraged. We feel that the act of tipping makes the experience of seeing a drag performance more memorable and fun. By tipping a performer during their number, you become part of the performance. There’s a certain thrill that comes with tipping a drag performer that helps you as an audience member and us as performers have an amazing show.
Do I need to bring $1 bills?
If you have a bunch of $1 bills, absolutely bring them, but if you don’t, we always have at least one of our girls on the floor exchanging larger bills for tipping bundles of $1 bills.
I don't drink. Should I still see the show?
Yes! While our host definitely encourages drinking during the show, it is not required for you to have a good time. We offer a variety of non-alcoholic beverages at the bar for your enjoyment.
Is there free parking?
Yes! There is free parking, but it is limited. We recommend arriving early and carpooling to make sure you get a good parking spot, especially for sold out shows.
