Polly's Follies is a long running Sunday night variety drag show hosted by Polly Petrie in Sydney, showcasing new and emerging drag queens, and often featuring a renowned professional drag artist. Polly's Follies opened at the Albury Hotel in 1991 and save for a brief interlude at Caesar's Bar in Camperdown, ran there until its closure in 2001. Polly then took the show to the Venus Room in Kings Cross and following that venue's closure, to Polly's Bar at Lizard Lounge at the Exchange Hotel. Since 2004, Polly's Follies has played Sunday nights at Stonewall Hotel in Darlinghurst, Sydney.
