Hera Björk - The Queen of Effing Everything

The Queen of Icelandic Eurovision
Join the Queen of Icelandic Eurovision, Hera Björk, as she ditches her snow boots and dons her thongs in preparation for her maiden Australian tour in 2025!
The self-titled, tongue-in-cheek Queen of Effing Everything is a fierce one-woman cabaret show that dives head first into the life of a Eurovision living legend, sharing hilarious candid stories of how a modest young Icelandic woman became the unofficial ‘mother’ of the Song Contest. A two-time representative for Iceland (2010 and 2024), Hera relives the highs and lows (and shares some saucy secrets) of the Eurovision inner circle, including the side-splitting antics you can have as an Icelandic backing singer.
An evening of songs and stories, this is a not-to-be-missed intimate insight into the life of Iceland's unofficial leading lady, who is as comfortable in gumboots as she is in glittering gowns. The show is a dirt-dishing musical monologue on how a young girl from Reykjavík dreamed of becoming an Olympic gymnast, but instead succeeded in shaping her life as a go-getting, toilet-scrubbing Diva of the Eurovision scene: The Queen of Effing Everything, in her own words!
There will be laughs, there will be songs, and yes, there will be plenty of Eurovision. The Queen of Effing Everything is filled with honesty and charm that has something for everyone.
Audience sizes are limited, giving everyone the best seats in the house as they get an up-close glimpse into everything Eurovision.
