Velour has headlined performances in theatres across the world, bewitching audiences on five continents. In 2019, she debuted her first one-queen show, Smoke & Mirrors, to critical acclaim. Hailed as “a spellbinding tour de force” (Forbes), the show has pushed the boundaries of what drag can be, incorporating Velour’s signature innovative use of video projection Smoke & Mirrors has since toured 30 cities across three continents, with sold out performances at iconic theaters in LA, London, San Francisco, Chicago, Auckland, Toronto, and more. With a 36-city European tour of the show kicking off in February 2022, Smoke & Mirrors is the first theatrical drag spectacular to integrate a full lip sync narrative and tour the world at this scale.

Velour is also widely known as the director and host of NightGowns, a drag revue she began in 2015. Over the years, it became one of the most esteemed and oft-imitated drag shows in the world and was adapted into a docu-series now streaming on The Roku Channel.

Kevin Aviance: Towering, Black, and Bald—the drag icon who conquered the ’90s gay dance scene and continues to revolutionize the cultural landscape today. Inspired by avant-garde legends like Grace Jones, Boy George, and David Bowie, Kevin rose from the basements of Richmond, Virginia, mastering music, dance, and theater with a vision that would soon shake the world.
