Maddie Longlegs is a bilingual queen and started doing drag on March 12th, 2022. She’s originally from a small town of Fort-Coulonge, Québec. Maddie had an incredible year where she got to push and elevate her drag; she was selected for 1 of the 10 cultural personalities of the year by Radio Canada for her implication of the art of drag and for organizing drag shows in the Pontiac. She has a big personality and she’s also one of the tallest drag queens you will ever meet!
China Doll is an Ottawa based drag performance artist, community builder and karaoke epressario who uses her “over the top” drag character to spread love, joy and laughter. She weaves humour into her everyday costumes and performances to broaden conversations about queer identity & culture.
