With the current pandemic, the state of the music and touring industry has dramatically changed. Where were you when everything was brought to a halt?
Drag is more of a hobby for me than a career so I was doing occasional.shows and events at local venues here in Edmonton when the world stopped.
How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
I managed to shift to doing drag online. Occasionally recording numbers for events or fun. We were hosting outdoor drag shows in local parks as well last summer and fall.
What have you been doing to fill/make the most of your new-found free time at home? How are you supporting your mental health through all of this?
I have definitely had more free time for creative endeavours like crafting, outfits, wigs etc. Drag is actually a huge part of my.mental health care so I have missed it a lot. Have tried to embrace the slower pace, downtime and forced my self to relax a bit more than normal.
How are dealing with the Covid second wave?
I have found the second lockdown muchess stressful. Anxiety isowr this time so have felt creative and actually done quite a bit more online drag this wave.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
Have been to several events over the years at Starlite. Usually Pride related. My favourite though was a small film we filmed in the space years ago for a local film maker. DINX
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
Drag qweens can't wait to hit the stage live for you again. We are all excited and working on new material to gag you with the moment we get he green light.
