This month's small business spotlight features Talia Tucker. Talia Tucker L'Whor is a local Denver conceptual performer dedicated to transforming the landscape of drag performances and broadening the venues in which they occur. Her drag events emphasize comedy, focusing on humor and entertainment through crowd work and engagement. Talia enjoys producing events with strong themes that encourage audience interaction with drag in innovative ways. 


She frequently hosts a variety of events, including bingos, musical bingos, trivia nights, murder mysteries, cabarets, cocktail parties, runway events, and tonight-show-style interviews. Talia particularly loves hosting private events!

With over six years of experience in this artistry, Talia began to invest more in producing her shows after the pandemic. Her first murder mystery show at Middleman allowed her to expand her ability to collaborate with new people and deliver exceptional entertainment. When she isn't busy producing incredible shows, you can find her indulging in one of her passions: tennis! Talia is a long-time tennis player and lover, even winning a Colorado State Open in 2022! 


Her favorite individual performance is her Pink Panther act at Drag Nation, while her favorite produced show is the Holi-Slay at Meow Wolf, performed with her drag family. They are approaching the three-year anniversary of that performance!

Talia realized that a 9-to-5 job didn't align with her personality and sought a way to stay engaged and channel her creativity, leading her to discover drag as the perfect outlet. She notes that she loses interest if she stays on the same project for too long, which is why she enjoys this field, where most projects are short-term. This allows her to maintain her motivation and enthusiasm while celebrating each project and seamlessly transitioning to the next.


Talia’s target demographic is primarily within the LGBTQ+ ally community. Many of her events take place at breweries and venues that are not stereotypical "gay bars," helping her reach new audiences and introduce them to drag for the first time. She provides an engaging first look at how fun drag can be! Additionally, Talia identifies as a glamour clown who loves to be over-the-top and hyperbolic. You can always spot her in large garments adorned with sparkles, often incorporating elements of self-humor. She believes in the importance of laughter, stating, "If you can't laugh at yourself, you're missing the biggest joke of life," quoting Phylis River. Ensuring that everyone can share in the laughter and enjoy the experience together is essential to her.
