Hailing from New Zealand, I’ve had a lot of experience with Aussie queens from across the Tasman. Those girls love to talk. When I moved to Toronto I didn’t think I’d ever have to suffer through that Aussie twang again, until I met Carrie Glamshaw. Just kidding! She’s sounds lovely, and she’ll be performing as […]

What you may not know about me, young and virginal as I seem, I happen to be the mother of a very handsome and agile young man – he’s just not allowed to call me “mother” in public. Drag isn’t just for queens, and this prince of the people is just one of the many […]

One of my favourite aspects of Pride Toronto is how it unites us and transcends generations, bringing together everyone, both old and young.
