In the Chamber

The Disability Collective is thrilled to present CRIPtonite, a Deaf and disability-led drag and burlesque show! CRIPtonite brings together a variety of talented performers to celebrate the intersectionality of queer and disabled identities! We’re challenging barriers and showcasing the incredible artistry in our community. Expect a night of fierce creativity, radical accessibility, and unapologetic self-expression.

Join us in-person at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre or online via livestream on Wednesday, June 25 at 8PM for a line up of bold and boundary-pushing acts. Purchase an "ONLINE ONLY" ticket to receive the livestream link in advance of the show.

The Disability Collective (TDC) is the only fully disability-led multidisciplinary arts organization in Toronto. Dedicated to celebrating and showcasing work created solely by disabled artists, TDC strives to de-stigmatize disability and challenge perceptions of disability by providing disabled artists with paid opportunities to share their work in a variety of forms, along with actively advocating for and improving accessibility and inclusion in the Canadian arts community by providing disability consultation services. We are committed to strengthening the disability community's presence in the arts and creating a space where disabled artists can connect and grow their practices together.

Buddies’ Queer Pride Festival 

June 4 – 29, 2025

Buddies’ Queer Pride 2025 is a festival of theatre, comedy, drag, music, art, and parties that welcome your queerness in all its evolutions, revolutions, and possibilities. 

There’s a place for you (and your lover/chosen family/polycule/new crush) on the biggest dance floor in the Village. 

Let’s fill this sweaty sanctuary with our tenderest selves, and dream of what queer abundance, exaltation, and deviance can look like all year round. 

Thank you to our Government Partner, Canadian Heritage, and our Gold Sponsor, Freddie, for making the 2025 Queer Pride Festival possible!
