About

Le Centre Culturel Franco-Manitobain and Kilusan Productions proudly present “Queer Night Mini-Ball” at le Patio 340, on august 27th at 8 pm. This event is a 2STLGBQIA* centred space for the ballroom community to compete against one another walking a variety of categories. Ballroom is an underground queer subculture in which people “walk” (i.e., compete), perform, dance, lip-sync, and model in different categories, which are designed to simultaneously epitomize and satirize gender constructs, occupations, and social classes, while also offering an escape from reality. Category participants are required to “walk” one by one to receive full approval from all judges, known as ‘receiving your 10s’. Competitors are judged on their abilities, “effect” (costumes, appearance, theatrics, presentation), and perceived “realness” (embodied and/or visual believability, authenticity). Those who have the highest score in their category win prizes and glory
