Becky and special guest hosts Allysin Chaynes and Champagna turn the spotlight on two Queer Cinema classics that came out of the Outback in 1994: The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and Muriel's Wedding. Allysin Chaynes is a Toronto drag performer and pop cultural sponge, specializing in all things subcultural, queer, camp, strange and unusual. A member of the SpeakeasyTv creative collective on Speakeasy-TV.com, Allysin is an online host, organizer and producer of Toronto’s first digital queer venue. She can be seen across the city in drag bars, theatres, holes in the wall, dive bars and anywhere in-between. She’s a time travelling, anachronistic rockstar, A DJ, A Live musician, and a performer of Magic. Allysin has been creating Drag wonder with queens from the West End for nearly a decade, especially alongside her Sisters in Toronto's House of Filth! You can currently catch her weekly on speakeasy-tv.com or streaming in the show Queens on CBC gem as Naomi. A graduate of MacEwan’s Theatre Arts program and Centennial’s Advanced Script to Screen, Champagna has an extensive background in acting, most recently in CBC Gem Original QUEENSas Elaina Love.
