Mado Lamotte is Montreal’s most popular drag queen who became famous for hosting one of the biggest drag shows called Mascara. Cabaret Chez Mado is her home where she hosts some of the city’s best cabaret and drag acts particularly on Tuesday and Saturday evenings. Incredible drag performances with a comedic twist and Queens are way better than Toronto. After the well thought out performance, the dance floor lit up and the stage was free for people to dance on - it was packed and lively but didn’t feel crowded (despite being a Saturday night). Best time to show up is around midnight - expect low cost for drinks (mixed drinks ~$5-$8), ~$6/person cash-only cover, and a mandatory cash-only coat check ($1.50 per coat). Bar accepts cards and cash.
