Admiring Librarians

Admiring Librarians is my first one-woman show (one-tran, if you prefer), my Fringe debut, and also, a very personal show where I will be both serious and funny.

It will be at O Patro Vys (356 Mont-Royal E), and the dates are the following:

Saturday, June 8 - 22:45 Openers: Elie Gill and Lauren Mallory
Sunday, June 9 - 14:00 Openers: Steve Patrick Adams and Alo Azimov
Monday, June 10 - 21:00  Openers: Kě and Leslie Simpliciano-Szigeti
Tuesday, June 11 - 22:30 Openers: Sandy and Brad MacDonald
Saturday, June 15 - 21:30 Openers: Yumi Blake and Sadie Moland
Sunday, June 16 - 16:00 Openers: Eve Parker Finley and Carmina Berbari

Tickets are $14 before fees but there is a $5 discount if you are a librarian, or if you have a library card.

If you can't attend the show but you'd still like to support it, you can contribute to my Kickstarter.

The Poly Mic

When, in the summer of 2023, I started The Poly Mic with a few other fellow queer producers and comics, some folks doubted that there'd be space for a weekly queer open mic in Montreal.

A year later, it has grown so much it is a double bill:

- The open mic starting at 7 pm, still welcoming any variety acts -mostly comedy- and centering queer performers but open to anyone who's creative and has something to say. The mic is mostly in English but French-language performers are always welcome.

- The 9pm show, which can be understood as an open mic for producers, features experiments with new, original show concepts, out of town performers, or comedians running their own sets.
