The Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Show is a stage production in Montreal, held at L'Olympia on November 18. It is a holiday show built around two performers, BenDeLaCreme and Jinkx Monsoon, who bring drag, comedy and live theatre together in a festive evening.
What the show is
The production is described as the biggest holiday show south of the North Pole, and it returns with a new winter story. Its premise is a run of festive misadventures that has grown over nine years. Past editions have featured sentient Christmas treats, Dickens' ghosts and the Nutcracker's Kingdom of Sweets. This year's sleigh-ride storyline is being kept secret, so audiences arrive without knowing exactly where the night will go.
Who it suits
- Visitors who enjoy drag and comedy performance
- Those looking for a lively, playful evening in the run-up to the holidays
- Returning fans who want to see how the nine-year story continues
- Anyone curious about a show that mixes theatre, writing and humour
Planning the visit
The show takes place at L'Olympia, and seating is assigned, so it is worth checking your ticket for your place before you go. Full details, including the start time, are listed on the venue's website, linked from the event page. Montreal's downtown setting makes it easy to combine the evening with a meal or a walk before or after the performance.
