We Are the Kiki Queens

Kiki Queens is an all-inclusive cabaret troupe, that’s why we don’t limit our performers to any one gender, gender-expression, sexual orientation, or even type of performance. Below you will find all of our regular volunteer Kiki Queen Cast, Company, Creatives and Board who make the magic happen.

Cast

Nita Bevvy*

This gurl always be thirsty. It’s all we can do to peel that phone outta her hands at showtime…heaven forbid she miss a woof, tap, or match! Don’t let those glasses fool you, Nita’s anything but innocent.

Tipsy Bubbles*

Tipsy is the Kiki’s resident bearded drag queen AND a master of the stringed instruments. This ukulele lady will serenade you to paradise.

Venus Envy*

Venus is our resident bombshell with a voice as big as her tits. She’s been thrilling audiences since Britney was on the Disney Channel.

Trudie Vada

She looks better when others paint her but always brings the comedy (and over-the-top flare) whenever she gets the chance. Whether writing, directing or performing, she loves pushing boundaries & delivering the unexpected. Her favorite quote: “Your playing small does NOT serve the world.”

Izzie Contagious*

Izzie has been infecting audiences with laughter and looks for years. She’s resident bossy bitch…careful not to cross her, she’s been known to snatch wigs and boyfriends.

Ethel Bourbon*

Ethel’s voice is like Joan Jett meets Freddy Mercury. Her rock, power-ballads will knock your socks off…and she throws down a fierce medley too.

Sassy Betch

With dreams of being a Broadway baby, this gal is sassy, brassy, bold with a heart of gold. Sassy’s got quite a mouth on her…and her comedy is pretty great too!

Miss Mona Rhodes

Once described as the love child of Dolly Parton and Britney Spears without any of the looks or talent, this country courtesan will show you why she’s the true Mouth of the South! Her singing, of course…

Captain Bumbas*

Captain’s hosting magic, dashing ensembles, and killer cooking have earned him a place as our only male Kiki Queen. Who else is gonna feed these hungry gurls?

Hallie Doll

She can be a little shy and demure… until she puts on her dancing heels, then she’ll be shaking her lil booty til the sun come up. She loves nothing more than to strut and twirl with her good judies and make sure everyone has a great time!

Ginger Ambrosia

Chicago’s reigning “Ginger Sensation” and the love child of Ronald McDonald and Kathy Griffin. This fiery vixen has been heating up stages for over 10 years, spreading her bold personality and sharp wit across the Midwest. Ginger uses her humor to not only uplift but also to defend the queer community. If you want a queen who’s as hilarious as she is fabulous, Ginger is your red-headed diva blazing a trail for LGBTQ+ empowerment.

Dick Gonzalez

Since joining the Kiki Queens in 2019’s “Live and Sleazy,” Ricky has embodied his on-stage persona, “Dick,” with signature wit and flair. As a regular guest judge for Speed Drag Showdown, he brought humor to the troupe’s online fundraisers. “I may not be the most talented singer in the KikiQueens, but I’m also not the funniest,” he quips, adding his own brand of “charm” to every performance.

Leviticus Divine

Hailing from Texas, Leviticus has been a Kiki Queen since 2024. She’s been performing since before she could walk—probably before she could talk too. A lover of all things LGBTQIA, she’s here to advocate for causes dear to her heart, while putting a smile on the faces of every audience. Helps if they drink a bit beforehand.

Aunt Penny

A special mix of mess and class. You favorite Aunt. (because she is nobody’s Mutha!) The token DEI enthusiast bringing her special sound of blackness. Remember the answer is always yes and your mom doesn’t need to know!

Pansy

Get ready to explore the garden of Pansy, where the flowers are as beautiful as they are sinful. As a member of the renowned Haus of Mascara and the fabulous Chicago Kiki Queens, Pansy brings a bouquet of naughtiness, humor, and jaw-dropping looks to every performance. This ditzy diva is sure to make your heart (and other things) bloom.

That Cool Girl You Met in the Bar Bathroom Once

You and Cool Girl probably followed each other on IG during a night out and never spoke again. You always like each other’s stories though! She’s also a vers queen (in the sense that she can equally serve pop and musical theatre).

Nora Leptic

Tall.

Lady Garbáge

She’s trash! She’s class! She’s mediocre at best! Or at least her makeup is. Lady Garbáge is here for a long time, not a good time. Wait. Scratch that. Reverse it. Whether she’s on the stage or the dance floor, this heel-stomping queen is here to make sure everyone around her is livin’, lovin’ life!
