Jimbo’s Drag Circus is her biggest tour to date, with two buses packed with sets, six quick costume changes and a full crew of 20. Time was the biggest challenge – from crafting the story and creating costumes to organizing logistics in short order.
“It’s this amazing combination of years of work.”
Jimbo’s Drag Circus hit the road May 16 with shows in communities large and small, including places with LGBTQ2IA+ communities, but not a lot of events or spaces for queerness.
She’s excited to provide that opportunity for people to be themselves, sharing that fortune and support she’s found in audiences worldwide. “It’s really important for me to go into smaller communities where they don’t get shows like this often,” she said. “People can come and be their authentic weird selves, which they maybe don’t have the opportunity to do because of where they are.”
Canada’s crowned clown brings her acclaimed circus tour to Victoria with two shows June 12 (sold out) and 13.
