Edinburgh: the show must go on! After losing our venue, Cameo heroes moved us to Cineworld, now “Sinnerworld” with a P.A. and lights. Nihat ran cues on the floor, Devine Tension slayed, and we made it magic. First visit and I’m in love with this city and its incredible audience. I’ll be back!
EDINBURGH — quick update!
Excuse the post show hideousness. It’s been a very stressful 24 hours. Due to a venue change, our Thursday, April 16 IDOL WORSHIP show has been moved to Cineworld. Tickets were briefly offline but are now back on sale at peacheschrist.com.
8pm, Cineworld
It’s our Dublin debut!!! Very excited for my first visit to Ireland. Can someone invite Rosie O’Donnell for us?
One of the best parts of being overseas w/ Mink Stole is introducing an important woman in my life to some British chosen family. In Manchester, we gathered for a Sunday roast w/ Bren, Lane, Liquorice Black, and Anna Phylactic, a table full of people I love in the first UK city that brought me here.
London, you set the bar HIGH. Our BFI kickoff of IDOL WORSHIP was beyond—packed with friends, TWO standing ovations, and then… Boy George backstage. I nearly collapsed. A lifelong hero since 1983. Manchester tonight is SOLD OUT, Newcastle next. UK, you’re showing UP. peacheschrist.com
I love London! Feels surreal being here prepping IDOL WORSHIP at the BFI. Lead programmer Justin Johnson treated us to a fabulous dinner, and the legendary original Dreamlander Vincent Peranio is here, swapping stories with Mink since 1966. Full-circle magic. London, see you tomorrow night.

Horror franchises really used to say "OK now let's do a John Waters one."
OK, it looks like we have time to catch a show in London tonight! What are your recommendations?
Backstage at Dolores Park for the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence Easter celebration, hosting with my best Judys Sister Roma and Honey Mahogany. The sun is shining, the crowd is fierce, and San Francisco is showing OFF today. What a pastel hunky zombie dream!
Last night was electric. Bringing SHOWGIRLS back to the Castro felt exactly right for my 30-year celebration. And yes, Gina Gershon is a GODDESS- stunning, hilarious, generous & smart. Our cast and AUDIENCE brought pure SF heat! And Baby Jessica (in a well) lap-dancing?! Unreal. More photos soon!

I owe the Bay Area an apology. It’s my understanding that the return of Night of 1,000 Showgirls may have summoned the Volcano Goddess and triggered last night’s 5.1 earthquake. If you thought that got things shaking, just wait until tonight’s pre-show.
It’s SHOWGIRLS eve in The Castro! So glad to be back…
This was one of those interviews where both Mink and I found ourselves genuinely impressed by the questions. A few we’d never even been asked before, which doesn’t happen often. Worth a read if you want a deeper dive into Idol Worship and our strange little universe:

Darlin'! The long-anticipated SHOWGIRLS episode of the Midnight Mass podcast is here. Happy Showgirls week!!!
YES, we're doing this show in Manchester on April 11th but it's sold out! There are still some tickets for the London show on the 10th or the Newcastle show on the 13th.
San Francisco: BIG news. Tickets are on sale now. After 25 years with Mink Stole, we’re bringing IDOL WORSHIP home for one final show at The Strand during my 30 Years of Peaches celebration. It feels surreal. This is it. Don’t wait on tickets. PEACHESCHRIST.COM

Mom, what were you like in the 90’s?
Discovered that Mink Stole and @peacheschrist.com are appearing at my local Arthouse (Tyneside Cinema) in April and reader, I bought those tickets in an instant!
On this episode, Rick welcomes the fantastic @peacheschrist.com & they instantly hit it off.

If I love a band enough, I’ll go solo. Saw My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult last night in Portland and danced through an ankle injury. Worth it, ghoul. Discovered them at 15 and wanted to BE them. Still do. Decades later, they still take me to church! Join the KULT!
Celebrated camp filmmaker John Waters' face photoshopped onto Mr. Roger's body. He's got his arms crossed over the miniature neighborhood trolley and the logo has been altered to John Waters' Neighborhood.
Look for the felchers.

It's bugged me for a while that the original #DragPortrait I did of @peacheschrist.com differed in style from all the other portraits so I had to redraw her (same reason I redrew Cheddar Gorgeous)
Sweet Vinny and I have become extremely bonded this week. I’d absolutely consider dog-napping him… if it didn’t mean the Mistress of the Dark herself would ensure my swift demise.
One of these Dorothys just might be me. At this point I’m making it my mission to appear in every film Jeffrey McHale makes. I’m now 2 for 2, from being featured in You Don’t Nomi to a wee cameo in It’s Dorothy. Mr. McHale… I’m ready for my next close-up.

It's SURREAL to be traveling across the pond w/ Mink Stole for our final run of Idol Worship. I love this piece in @thelondonstandard.bsky.social. And SF- the grand finale is coming. TIX on sale April 1 - no joke! My newsletter subscribers always get first alerts. www.standard.co.uk/culture/film...
Agree!!!
All hail Doris Wishman!
Still pinching myself after this BFI interview with Mink. Wild to bring Idol Worship to the main house at BFI Southbank. From Rio Cinema to Royal Albert Hall to the B… F… I… London really mirrors my SF journey. This one feels special. Tickets moving fast: www.bfi.org.uk/interviews/m... #minkstole
Excited for this!
