COLOUR ME DRAGG PERFORMER CALLOUT - JUNE 26TH EVENT

COLOUR ME DRAGG: SILENCE THIS! - Buddies Queer Pride Festival 2010

This is a shout out, a call out to all the magnificent Queer indigenous, aboriginal, POC (People of Colour) PERFORMERS of Toronto and the world!

CMD is now an official event at the Buddies QUEER PRIDE Fe...stival this year and this time we're hitting THE CHAMBER stage! That's right folks, WE'RE MOVIN' ON UP! It's bigger and fully equipped to better showcase your awesome talents.

And get this, this event takes place on a SATURDAY! Saturday June 26th, 7pm-10pm.

We have 10 performance spots to fill, so sign up will be on a first come first serve basis. SO GET YOUR INFO IN ASAP!!! (contact info below). Now, if you can't make the Buddies show, we will have spots on the BLOCKARAMA and PRIDE DRAG stages during the following weekend, so we do have a few more spots to fill at our other events.

Because of the limited amount of spots available this year and because of all the b-shit happening with Pride this year, we want to be even louder and even bigger this year, SO! We would like to encourage as many performers to collaborate this year and come up with amazing GROUP ACTS!! Collaborating and sharing with your fellow performers is a truly rewarding experience!

If you are a stage virgin but would really love to perform, or you have never performed in a group before, please let us know and we will connect folks with those who’d like to form a group performance.

LASTLY, we are putting out another call out for those who would be interested in doing a group number to represent Colour Me Dragg at a VERY SPECIAL PRIDE EVENT (TBA). This act would also be performed at CMD: Silence This at Buddies.

So that's that!! Here's how to sign up:

1. Head over to colourmedragg.blogspot.com and fill out our PERFORMER SIGN UP FORM or send us an e-mail at colourmedragg@gmail.com.
2. In the subject line include : CMD JUNE 26 PERFORMER SIGN UP
3. Let us know if you are going solo, already have a group, or want to join a group.

We'll then get in contact with you to get all the details we need to get this show started!
