SAMI PARTY — Sami Landri Live at Nightshift on 5th

No lighter needed when you shine this bright.

Kamloops, get ready — Le Sami Party is coming to Nightshift on 5th.

Sami Landri, whose real name is Samuel Landry, is the first Acadian drag queen to compete on Canada's Drag Race, where she won the Fan Favourite award. Originally from Dieppe, the multi-talented artist has captivated audiences both on stage with Le Sami Party — a vibrant mix of drag and comedy — and online, amassing nearly 480,000 followers on TikTok and 282,000 on Instagram.

Now based in Montreal, Sami explored music, dance, visual arts, and acting before finding breakout success through drag. She founded the collective Haus of Ménage in 2018 and was crowned Acadian Queen in 2019 under the name Mona Noose. In 2021, she also won the Vague Award for Best Acadian Short Film for Mona, co-directed with Xénia Gould.

That same year, Sami went viral on TikTok with the now-iconic question, "Do you have cigarettes?", helping popularize Chiac while humorously tackling political topics such as fears around "wokeness" and society's obsession with pronouns. Since then, she has appeared on Crave and Radio-Canada, been featured in outlets including URBANIA, La Presse, Le Devoir, and Interview Magazine, hosted events for Fierté Montréal and Juste pour rire, and launched her recurring Cabaret Mado event Le Sami Party, now touring across Canada and internationally in France.

She also co-hosts the cult-favourite web series Helpez-moi alongside Chiquita Mère, and has performed across Canada as well as in Paris, Lyon, Lille, Geneva, and Brussels.
