VIVETTE PERRY
EVENT MANAGER
Vivette is excited to join to Iowa Drag Awards in its 3rd year. She has previously worked as co-producer, creative consultant, and performer for Fresh Breath Productions, as well as DSM Drag King for the past decade. More recently, Vivette served on the board for Capital City Pride (CCP) as the Entertainment Director and flawlessly executed the best overall entertainment the festival has ever seen in it's 45 year history. The headliners featured the queen of percussion Sheila E, RuPaul royalty Shangela and Trixie Mattel as well as Haiku Hands from the land down under and YouTube sensation Leslie and the Lys (first performance in almost 10 years!).
Ms. V loves the togetherness and celebration that Drag King DSM and the Iowa drag scene brings. There is always an amazing electricity in the air and an overwhelming sense of community and love! She has an extensive creative performing arts background and also has a 200 hour RYT that allows her the enjoyment of teaching yoga. Vivette has been a long time passionate ally to the LGBTQ+ community and was recognized for this in 2022 as the Capital City Pride Ally of the Year. She was also honored as one of the 40 Women to Watch in the Hospitality Industry for the Iowa Restaurant Association.
