A MAD Drag Night ‘Beat for The Gods’ promises to be a Dragulicious Night of Extravaganza Eleganza.

Our girls may start the night as Goddesses but at A MAD Drag Night, anything is possible. Fierce dancers, incredible singers, hilarious comedians, you may even find yourself face to face with a few unexpected, yet familiar, characters as A MAD Drag Night continues to bring its own spin on the Drag show.

Thorpe played Fleur in Absolutely Fabulous, an eccentric and somewhat odd work-colleague who spoke in a very precise fashion. Along with working extensively with Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders.

She has also appeared in BBC2’s Alexei Sayle’s Stuff, A Bit of Fry and Laurie; BBC’s Casualty, Material Girl and ITV’s The Bill and Midsomer Murders.

She played Beverley Osman in the BBC children’s comedy drama No Sweat, starring boyband North and South. She made a guest appearance in Channel 4 soap opera, Hollyoaks as Elizabeth.
