WHO WILL BE THE NEXT DRAG EMPIRE?

When four enchanting divas are in close enough proximity, a coven of BitchCraft is inevitably formed. Welcome to the Haus of BitchCraft, a collective of gender-confused baddies who mix glamour, stupidity, and a touch of dark magic all together in spellbinding performances. Introducing the bitches themselves: Mira Fantasy, Oshawa’s Got Talent 2010 Participant, Ocean La Vodka Giovanni, once known as Lil Vodka the Child Rapping Prodigy, Regina DeVil, Understudy for the Tinman in the Wizard of Oz at the ripe age of 9, and ISaidBoo, Santa’s Teenaged Helper in local French Christmas experience. Together they create the ultimate concoction for unforgettable entertainment, unapologetic charisma, and bewitching beauty. So feast your eyes, your hearts, and loins and embrace the lunacy of the Haus of BitchCraft.

Since the first brick was thrown at Stonewall, a legacy was born; built to last, Brick Haus was destined to be. They’re like your Saturday-Morning Cartoons, on acid. Brick Haus was built upon a foundation of camp with a touch of glam. Each brick lays down the groundwork for a grandiose monolith, portraying a gorgeous mosaic of spit, individuality, and mortar. Put your steel-toed boots on, because they’re cementing their place in the competition just like they’re cementing a place in our hearts. With equal parts Blou, Catfish, Goose and Trix, they’ve got all the right materials to make a lasting impression. They’re all about fierce individuality and artistic expression that have been brought together through a love of weirdness, creative experience, and pure unadulterated eroticism. They’re building a dynasty one brick at a time. Bricked up, Brick Haus.

Get ready for a house full of clowns! Full of bold characters and surprises, this crew brings their unique brand of fun and chaos. Anni Elation, the harlequin of horror, serves fantasy with a side of coulrophobia. Lexxi Libbi Doe will enchant and mystify with their alternative performances. Rip Em, an interdisciplinary clown new to Ottawa, is ready to set up their tent and bring the camp. And don’t miss Vex Scandal, the goofy performer with big costumes and even sillier acts. Together, they squeeze into the clown car to bring you an eclectic mix of creativity, tomfoolery, and campy fun. Taking life too seriously is a drag, but taking it “silly-ously” IS DRAG! Prepare for a honkin’ good time with these clowns.

The Haus of Wax was forged by melting down four local icons into one beautiful crime against God. These performers are dripping with anticipation and ready to wax the competition like a hairy leg! Matcha is candle wax with a 12-inch wick, glowing in the darkness with humour and radiance. But please do not set her on fi re! Bobby is the waxing moon, transforming and illuminating, bringing forth the tides of change. Ava is wax polish, shining with brilliance and sophistication, but be careful, she’s slippery when wet! Penny is earwax, which is why she has to yell so loud. Together these whacks make the Haus of Wax, ready to melt your minds, hearts, and loins! Why fit the mould when you can break it? Brace yourselves because we’re turning up the heat!
