- Sun Screens
As part of our SUN SCREENS, Palace is delighted to present a special screening of Jim Sharman’s 1975 film THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW.
Famous for its upbeat music and energetic performances, the film was saved from the wreckage by its devoted fans. Now a classic of the genre, the film still has just as many fans who regularly take part in interactive screenings of the film.
Edna Sorgelsen will do us the honour of hosting this screening. A legendary figure on the Brussels drag scene, Edna Sorgelsen began her drag career “chez Maman” before moving on to “Cabaret Mademoiselle”. With a terribly engaging personality, full of madness and exuberance, she loves to pass on her message to her audience.
Edna is one of the main voices on the “Amour, Drag et Courrier” podcast produced by Tipik, and on the independently produced “Boop et Edna: Le Podcast”.
She also hosts the “Unique en son genre” workshops, during which she reads stories to children on themes of gender, identity and tolerance. Made a household name by her appearance on Drag Race Belgique, Edna travels around Belgium and the world bringing her daily dose of good humor to her fellow human beings.
US, 100′, 1975, VO EN ST FR
Synopsis: One stormy night, the car of Janet and Brad, an uptight couple who have just become engaged, breaks down. They are forced to take refuge in a mysterious castle, where they meet its occupants, who are strange to say the least, and who are engaged in some very strange experiments.
