Known for her unifying spirit and comedic stylings, this unashamed drag queen, Mona de Grenoble (Alexandre Aussant) carries a satchel full of talent! On tour with her first one-Mona-show, entitled De la poudre aux yeux, directed by Vincent Léonard (Les Denis Drolet) audiences are in for an incredible evening.
Tackling a variety of heartfelt themes, from hypochondria and the drag "invasion" to the clash between Mona and her generation and the spectre of gender-neutral pronouns, De la poudre aux yeux will also reveal more about the genesis of the irreverent but likeable drag character, and the eternal duality between her and Alexandre. "Beyond my character, behind the make-up of the sweaty madame, hides a man... who sweats even more," she says.
The first drag queen to devote herself to stand-up on a major tour of Quebec, Mona de Grenoble will meet audiences somewhere between a pillow talk session and a heavy-on-the-wine family dinner! And with jokes ranging from false eyelashes to oil changes, she's just as capable of making a hairdresser laugh as a mechanic from Val d'Or.
After making her mark on Le prochain stand-up, where she reached the finals, Mona de Grenoble received a nomination at the 2022 Gala Les Olivier for the podcast Entre 2 lèvres, which she co-hosted. In 2023, she entered Big Brother Célébrités, where she swept all before her, winning the season and the public's Favourite Player award.
