Full of campy drag numbers, raucous cabaret acts, and riotous comedy from performers Eddi Licious, Zane Oak, and Peach Cobblah, Metro Studio After Dark LIVE is chock-full of fabulous queer art! Join us for this one night only event as we celebrate a return to live theatre at The Metro Studio with new cabaret seating. Limited tickets.
About the artists:
Eddi Licious is a Métis Two Spirit Lekwungen territory based dancer, gender bender, shape shifter and performance artist who began exploring Drag as an art medium in 2005. A mix of deep thoughts, primal urges, weirdness and whimsy, Eddi is passionate about experimenting with mixed media, concepts and characters as a means of promoting acceptance and diversity. This artist was featured on Season 2 (Ep. 9) of CBC’s Canada’s a Drag (episode available on CBC Gem and YouTube)
Zane Oak is an openly Transgender Comic, host and public speaker based in Victoria. Zane’s memoir style comedy both educates and entertains audiences in venues around British Columbia, and is a three time winner of THE SHOWDOWN and has performed on APTN’s, “She Kills Me.” Zane hosts “Queer Dog Comedy Night,” every Monday night at The Vicious Poodle, presenting the best pro am comics from Victoria and Vancouver Island.
Peach Cobblah, known as the Baddest B&*#h ofVancouver, or East Van’s Cheapest Date, has been a fixture of Vancouver’s nightlife for over a decade. With her wife Isolde N. Barron she co-created Tucked & Plucked: Drag Herstory LiveOnstage which has appeared extensively over the past seven years including at the Magnetic North Festival and PuSh International Performing Arts Festival, and their latest theatre-drag hybrid for kids, Parents Are A Drag, commissioned by the Vancouver International Children’s Festival. Peach created and for over four years hosted Shame Spiral, a devilishly regretful weekly drag show at 1181 in Vancouver’s West End. She also helped revive the queer East Van scene for the past decade with events like HUSTLA: homo hip hop, The Gay Agenda: Glitter & Skin, a monthly party celebrating all forms of masculinity, the annual Mr/Miss Cobalt DragCompetition, Eye Roll: Another F$%*ing 90s Party, and Limp Wrist, celebrating queer icons. She can be seen sweating and swaying all over town. She appeared as Hanna the Dominatrix in The Vancouver Playhouse’s final production, La Cage Aux Folles, and continues to host events across the lower mainland from prides to community events to political conversations. Out of drag Peach is known as award-winning playwright Dave Deveau who has had twelve plays produced, many of which have been touring Canada and the US for the past decade.
