It seems like only yesterday that ferocious trans drag performer Kissa Death started her Gala of Ghouls show — as a Come Out With Pride afterparty! — in Thornton Park. But this week she marks three years of relentless creativity with Coven Revival at Conduit. The combo Halloween- and Pride-themed soiree features drag and burlesque performers and collaborators Amnesia Effect, Your Scary Godmother and E, as well as Dr. Victor Von Vector and more.
The event, a Best of Orlando® readers’ poll finalist, has always surprised and delighted — they’ve done a fashion show, a séance and a scare trail, and they bring in consistently large crowds. “Gala prides itself on promoting and highlighting diversity at our shows in ways we are not often given the space to as queer people, trans performers and people of color. It’s a testament to the strong queer community in Orlando,” Kissa told us. And she means what she says.
7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 17, Conduit, 6700 Aloma Ave., Winter Park, conduitfl.com, $17.21.
