We’ve built a reputation for these mystery nights out; buy a ticket, take a gamble, and see what the night brings…you might see one of Hull’s top bands, a retro comedian, a professional drag queen a sword-swallower, or something entirely different. Who knows…?
Our Secret Gigs have become the stuff of urban legend, bringing comedians, musicians, dancers, drag queens, burlesque dancers, contortionists and more to the stages of Hull social clubs.
They first started in 2017 with the faaaaaaabulous Ceri Dupree going down a storm in William Gemmell Club and have continued in true BTO style, mixing the familiar with the unfamiliar at every turn.
Where else would you see a sword-swallower next to a set by a retro comedian, or an Cirque du Soleil performer hosted by Dolly Parton? Only at a Back to OursSecret Gig, that’s where.
