This Friday, Heidi will hit the stage at Ffos Las Racecourse for an unforgettable Ladies Day performance. 🎀🎢 Steele promises an electrifying half-cabaret show packed with sing-along anthems and plenty of laughs. “If you take me too seriously, you’re at the wrong show!” he chuckles.

His journey into drag started unexpectedly during a local production of “Kinky Boots.” A last-minute casting switch from Charlie to Lola transformed Steele’s world. Since then, offers have rolled in faster than a rugby scrum! Now donning wigs and sequins full-time, he’s booked every Saturday for the rest of the year.

With his theatrical flair and charisma, it’s clear entertainment runs deep in his veins. While his dad, Scott, transitioned from sports to TV, Steele’s carving his own path in a way that keeps laughter at the heart.

Heidi Heights is not just another drag persona – she’s a celebration of fun, boldness, and self-expression. Whether she’s getting audiences to sing back with her “Ho-de-ho!” or playfully altering song lyrics, Steele’s mission is to ensure everyone leaves with a smile.

Balancing roles as a personal trainer, sports masseur, and psychology grad, Steele’s got a full plate – but he’s thriving in the whirlwind! His adventures prove that stepping outside family footprints can lead to extraordinary new paths.

Catch Heidi Heights at Ffos Las for a dazzling experience that promises to up the ante on glamour and giggles! πŸ’ƒβœ¨
