Jimbo is a multi-hyphenate performance artist, musician, designer, and internationally revered drag clown. A fan favourite from season one of Canada’s Drag Race (2020) Jimbo’s live show is packed with her hit characters, like Casper the Baloney Ghost, Shirley Temple and Joan Rivers. Most known by her drag persona, Jimbo, who grew up in London, Ont., also designed the show’s look and composed original music with Andrew Taylor for the production.
If that’s not enough, Jimbo is also a standup comedian and musician with several singles and plans to release a debut album soon.
“Hey Canada! I’m coming home and I want you to join me for a wild ride of fun, laughs, looks and kooky Drag fun! It’s been my longtime dream to create my own ‘One Queen’ show and I can’t wait to bring it back to where it all started, doing what I love to do most … making people laugh! Bring your friends and save room for baloney!” said Jimbo in a statement.
