About the Performers

Vagenesis

She brings her unique brand of comedy and charisma to each of her performances. Vagenesis is an activist, advocating for all styles of drag, queer people, and all people of color. She is the creator of Black Label - a showcase of black queer artistry - and promotes inclusive casting and representation in all of her shows. Out of drag, they are known as Anderson, a maker of theatre, an acting teacher, and an outspoken non-binary activist for all marginalized groups.

Yo Will!

Open format DJ Yo Will! takes his eclectic style to the dancefloor blending genres you wouldn’t expect including but not limited to hip hop, RnB, Afro, Latin, house, club and more international sounds. He started as a karaoke DJ back in 2016 but his curiosity combined with a love for hip hop culture prompted him to learn how to use the DJ console he worked off of. This changed everything as he was over karaoke and decided to pursue rooms with people looking to dance instead of sing. In 2021, he would go into establishments and play for free to show his skills as a way to make an impression and be considered for residencies.

Yo Will! has played for crowds all over the DMV but mainly in DC as most of his residencies are here including Saint Ex, Open Market, Dew Drop, Metrobar and more.
