Drag Kings for CampOUT - an LGBQTIA+ Summer Camp

Calling anyone who loves to have a good time! Come out for an epic night of laughter and merriment as some of Chicago's finest drag kings assemble to raise money for CampOUT Florida.

CampOUT is not your average summer camp; it's a transformative nonprofit organization that offers a wide array of traditional camp activities such as canoeing, archery, camp games, swimming, sports, arts & crafts, and bonfires.

Help us raise funds to support their camp for 2024 and beyond!

OUR FEATURED PERFORMERS FOR THE NIGHT

Chick Swagger is a manifestation of grit and glamour. He grew up in the south and is about to show you a really good time. @Dr.uuumerica13

Christopher Belmont (it/he) is a drag entity from a strange, clowny planet far far away. It aims to entertain, confuse, and destroy the sanctity of heterosexual cinema, one number at a time. He has experience in the theater and the circus, but above all training just wants to give you a smile :) Its vessel was born in Chicago, but Christopher Belmont was born in Flagstaff, Arizona- carrying a chaotic mountain energy with him wherever he goes. @christopherbelmonts

D’Iconic 'The Midcentury Modern Whore', is a gender breaking drag performer. A storyteller at heart, D'Iconic utilizes hits from the 70s, 80s, and today to examine the troubles and liberation in sex and romance. @_diconic_

Koda Pendants is a weird lil queer who will leave you in a confused but welcome state of arousal. @koda.pendants

Mars Alchemy is a mystical starry king of the cosmos who is dripping with transformational power and magic. @mars_alchemy

Moxie Simone has been performing and singing around the top Chicago cabarets and speakeasies for nearly two years. Her Draggy, Gender-Shifting, Dirtbag Dyke Alter Ego, Daddy Xie couldn't resist getting in on the action, and debuted in November of 2023 at Open Cabaret. Here to steal your affection and ruin your life, Daddy Xie promises to titillate and entertain. @moxiesimone

Myles O’Hare a Chicago local with a gentle touch of Midwest swagger, has been stealing hearts since 2018. He got his start as a “Card Daddy” with the Chicago League of Lady Arm Wrestlers (CLLAW), where he was mentored by his Drag Father, Beau K “The Flower King.” Myles’ legacy blossomed with Windy City Performing Arts (WCPA) where he starred in back-to-back cabaret shows. He is excited to start off his year with the CampOUT fundraiser, and looks forward to the future opportunities that 2024 may bring. @mylesohare

A man of fine taste and questionable morals, Rippin Schwarzoff is the dapper, dandy, and dare I say devilish love-child of Drag Burlesque and Clown. Most likely to be found lounging on top of one of those airport grand pianos- before being chased out by security for public indecency. @rippschwarzoff

You know your dad's buddy who loves nothing more than a day on the lake and a Miller High Life in hand while listening to Steely Dan, but who also went through an obvious Lord of the Rings phase that never quite ended? Midwest by way of Middle Earth, Rusty Broadsword is that buddy. A storyteller and soccer public address announcer in past lives and a Dungeon Master on the weekends (the dice kind), Rusty isn't afraid to let his hair down and have a good time, and he hopes you have a good time, too. @rustybroadsword

Tool Osco is the kind of guy who shops at Costco… he owns everything in bulk. The bigger the better. From his explosive expressions to his tapping toes, Tool’s bringing his fire to a checkout line near you. @tool_osco

Wes Andy Sins is a cosplayer, thespian, poet, and editor from Tampa, Florida. His work is focused on the Black queer experience, the body and the digital world, examination of power structures in the United States, mental illness in the Black community and the human condition. Having grown up on the fringes of their own communities, they bring a sense of the alien and otherworldliness to their work, which they attribute to a love of speculative fiction. This is his drag debut, and he’s excited to expand the scope of his artistic performance! @rockandlit
