Up Next - SATURDAY JUNE 14, 2008!: The Oakland's Next top Drag Queen, aka the Valley's first Drag Pageant - ONE NITE ONLY!!!! With 5 contestants, 7 "local celebrity" judges, and a bevy of gender bending performers, this year's show is sure to be a hoot!
Hosted as always by Starlett O'Hara, the show festivities will kick off at 6:30 pm with a Spice of Life Party, then lead into the start of the Chinese Auction and Reception at 7 pm, with the performance beginning at 8 pm. Post show, the auction will be drawn and guests will have the opportunity to meet and greet the queens and kings. Photo opportunities abound! Watch the MOCKREVOLUTION promo here.

We are always looking for PERFORMERS and ACTS! We're looking for diversity and new faces, so if you've always wanted to play at the Stage, now is your chance! I'd love to see jugglers, artists, players of odd instruments, funny comedians, dancers, bands, singers, yodellers, professional whip handlers, snake charmers, and anyone else who's interested get on stage!
Hosted as always by Brooke, the Stage is the PERFECT EXCUSE to check out the overflow of talent overtaking the downtown scene...and spend time doing something HIP and CUTTING EDGE in the city you love so much!!
The Stage is the Oakland's answer to open mic night. Part vaudeville, part variety show, and all talent, The Stage celebrates live performance in every format.
Spread the word, send us messages, leave us comments and ideas and suggestions. Be mean, be nice, be sweet...but please, be vocal! We need all the help we can get! CONTACT: Brooke at
