The queen of comedy, Bianca Del Rio, arrives in Italy with the new world stand-up tour, Dead Inside World Comedy Tour.

Bianca Del Rio, the queen of comedy and champion of RuPaul’s Drag Race, has officially announced her return to Europe with the new world stand-up comedy tour, Dead Inside. The tour will take the drag queen icon to various European cities, including Milan for a highly anticipated single Italian date.
The tour, her sixth large-scale tour, will cover politics, pop culture, political correctness, current events, cancel culture, and everyday life through the eyes of someone who is “dead inside” (Dead Inside), finding humor in everything. The European tour follows a massive summer North American tour of 60 total dates.
Dead Inside rides on the enormous success of Bianca's two most recent comedy tours, Unsanitized, which reached 27 countries and recorded numerous sold-outs, and It’s Jester Joke, with which she made history as the first drag queen to perform at Wembley Arena and Carnegie Hall, achieving sold-out shows at both venues.
Bianca stated, “I’m coming out of my crypt and hitting the road to remind everyone that I’m still Dead Inside! If you like irreverent humor, sparkling costumes, and don’t get easily offended… this is the show for you!”
Fans can expect their self-proclaimed “clown in evening wear” favorite to return to the stage with the same lightning spirit and sharp tongue they have come to love. Bianca is a professional at entertaining the masses, and the audience can expect ample interaction between the comedic icon and her crowd. After all, when the “Joan Rivers of the Drag world” has a microphone in hand, no one is safe.

Bianca Del Rio, dubbed by the New York Times as “the Joan Rivers of the Drag world,” is a dimple-cheeked drag queen and outrageous comedian unafraid to shock and offend. Fierce, funny, and fabulous, she has solidified her place in the pop culture Hall of Fame since appearing on the Emmy Award-winning show RuPaul’s Drag Race. Thanks to her frankness, impeccable timing, and politically incorrect humor, Bianca won the sixth season of the show as a fan favorite. Since then, she has been named one of the “Most Powerful Drag Queens” by New York Magazine, which described her as “the queen of all Drag Races” due to her dynamic career as a comedian, host, and successful world tours.

Program and cast

Teatro dal Verme

The Teatro Dal Verme is a theatre in Milan, Italy located on the Via San Giovanni sul Muro, on the site of the former private theatre the Politeama Ciniselli. It was designed by Giuseppe Pestagalli to a commission from Count Francesco Dal Verme, and was used primarily for plays and opera performances throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, the theatre is no longer used for opera, and is a venue for concerts, plays and dance performances, as well as exhibitions and conferences.

The original 3,000-seat theatre, surmounted by a large cupola, was constructed in the traditional horseshoe shape, with two tiers of boxes and a large gallery (or loggione) which alone contained more than 1000 seats. It opened on September 14, 1872 with a production of Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots and soon established itself as one of Italy's most important opera houses. During its "golden years", the theatre saw the world premieres of Puccini's Le Villi (May 31, 1884); Leoncavallo's Pagliacci (May 21, 1892) and I Medici (November 9, 1893); and Cowen's Signa (November 12, 1893). It also saw the Italian premiere of Lehár's The Merry Widow (April 27, 1907).

By the 1930s, the theatre was mainly being used as a cinema. It was then severely damaged by American aerial bombardment during World War II, after which its magnificent central cupola, which had survived the bombing, was stripped of all its metal parts by the occupying German army. It was partially rebuilt in 1946, and for a period in the 1950s it was used for the performance of musicals. It then reverted to a cinema and a political conference hall.

In 1991, the theatre's interior underwent a major restructuring and renovation project which was completed in 1998. It now has a large modern auditorium, the Sala Grande, with 1420 seats, a smaller performing space known as the Sala Piccola, with 200 seats, and a space for exhibitions and conferences, the Sala Terrazzo. Since September 2001, it has been administered
