23 Best Things to Do in Montreal
"Like much of Montreal's Gay Village, Cabaret Mado, a cabaret drag bar, is a little gritty, a little sparkly, and utterly fabulous. Mado, an icon in Quebec's vibrant gay scene who has performed for more than 30 years, often oversees the nightly festivities herself by hosting live drag shows most nights of the week. It's a pretty intimate space, so there isn't a bad seat in the house. Just be warned: Those seated in the front row are most vulnerable to be corralled into the show (willingly or unwillingly). Mado has performed for more than 30 years in Montreal. Most nights, she'll just do an opening number and the relegate herself to the DJ booth, but even getting to see her perform for a few minutes is a thrilling experience." - Todd Plummer
