Past Events:
- Ever wanted to learn how the Kings do it? We held an informative, entertaining and accessible show on May 9th at Rhizome Cafe where we saw host T and kings Luke Wolf, Buster Cherry, Edward Malaprop and Owen break it down to an all ages audience.
- On May 29th we held a "preQuel" fundraiser (and dance party) at LICK, starring Ed Malaprop, Cazzwell Van Dyke, Leroy, Vic and Justin Casey-Cumms.
- On August 2nd, 2009, Pride weekend, we held Q-Factor, a new East Van queer dance party. Our sucessful first installment was Sci-Fi themed (fagbots, space creatures, mutants, tech freaks... bring it on!) and held at the WISE Hall on Pride weekend, August 2nd, 2009. We had performances by VaVa Vunderbust, Dianna David and Jillian Deri. We are deeply inspired by some of Vancouver's best queer dance parties of the past and present, including Odd Ball and BENT among others.
