Vocalist Jason Lee Howlett has a huge repertoire and can sing anything from modern pop to Musical Theatre. He also performs a brilliant tribute to Frankie Valli with a resounding clear falsetto.
Stage Magazine recently said of Jason: “If the future of light entertainment lies in the hands of young performers such as Jason Lee Howlett, then itâs in very safe hands indeed. Heâs a bundle of energy when on stage, packs a fine, versatile voice and clearly loves being on stage and entertaining audiences.”
Finally drag queen Lucinda Lashes from Southampton will be bringing her edgy humour and brilliant vocals to the Golden Handbag stage for the first time. Lucinda aka Ben Hathaway has a fabulous vocal range and her hard hitting observational comedy will make for an interesting evening.
The Golden Handbag Awards are acknowledged nationally and internationally as Brighton’s Gay Oscars. They were created by Gscene magazine in 1995 to acknowledge everything that is positive and fabulous about the Brighton Commerical Gay Scene and to highlight the work delivered by LGBT and HIV voluntary sector organisations in the city. Over the years the Awards have raised more than one hundred and seventy five thousand pounds for local organisations. During the evening 22 awards will be presented to the finest and best on the Brighton Gay Scene as voted by the readers of Gscene magazine and the evening will be compered by Lola Lasagne in her own inimitable style.
