Drop Deadly Gorgeous: the Pageant

June 16, 7pm | The Chamber | $20, PWYC available for QTIBPOC folks

Pageants aren’t just about beauty and superiority anymore: enter this comedic take at pageant culture, with a queer twist. Weird Alice Yankadic, self-appointed Canadian trash drag royalty, with Toronto’s Them Fatale Tygr Willy, has chosen eight of Canada’s prime queer artists: Ajahnis Charley, Babia Majora, CoQetesh Fetish, Feather Talia, Full Blown Father, Kuya Atay, Mars Alexander, Mx. Bukuru. Contestants will compete to show off their best assets for you and our five fierce local judges. Who will be crowned the Deadliest, and receive a custom prize pack including performance opportunities across the GTA throughout 2022?

Come celebrate these performers and the wealth of talent they have to put on display. This event is a gala and we encourage you all to dress up and strut your stuff on our pink carpet because there will also be prizes for the Belle of the Ball. With Stage Kitten Lallafral.
