About Emoji Nightmare:

Emoji Nightmare has been performing across Vermont and the region since 2015 and is one of the state’s leading drag entertainers. She is host and producer of many of the largest LGBTQ+ events of the past decade. She is the co-founder of the Vermont chapter of Drag Story Hour, a frequent guest on Amber Live!, and a multi-year nominee for Seven Days’ annual Daysies Awards for Best Drag Performer in Vermont.
 
About Helena Poison (Canada’s Drag Race, Season 5):

Helena Poison is Toronto’s Glam Rock Grunge Queen. Helena has been freaking out and turning on the patrons of Toronto and southern Ontario for just over 9 years. Known for her makeup skills, costuming, and a body built of sex, foam, and fast food, this queen gratefully occupies stages around the village including being a regular cast member at Crews & Tangos. She’s been featured in magazines, music videos, IKEA Canada’s pride campaign, and most recently some of her work and designs were worn on Season 1 of Canada’s Drag Race. Sexy, spooky, and a little bit stupid, Helena always brings the party, and of course a little bit of Poison.

GAYBAR’s sets span decades and include house music (melodic/progressive), top 40 hits, remixes, divas, drum and bass, dubstep and hip hop. She has been working hard for the last several years in Burlington to create/promote new queer spaces for people to congregate. THE GOAL: Good music. Celebrating our existence. Radical love & Radical joy
